How Can I Create Partitions of Different Sizes During Windows 11 Installation?

Hey everyone, I’m installing Windows 11 on a new SSD, and I want to set up multiple partitions with different sizes. I’m not exactly sure how to do this during the installation process. Can anyone guide me on how to create partitions of specific sizes while setting up Windows 11?

Hello my friend, Once you’re on the drive selection screen during installation, delete any existing partitions if you don’t need them (just make sure to back up anything important first!). Then, click New to start creating partitions with specific sizes. Type in the size for each, and Windows will take care of formatting them. It’s a good way to keep your OS and files separated on a fresh setup.

Hey! During the Windows 11 installation, when you reach the Where do you want to install Windows? screen, you’ll see a list of drives and an option to create new partitions. Select your SSD, click New, and you’ll be able to enter the specific size you want for each partition. Start with the partition for Windows itself (about 100GB should be good), and then create additional ones based on your storage needs. This setup lets you have better organization right from the start!
