Hello all, I'm wondering what I am doing wrong here. I want to boot up windows through my 120GB ssd and it says there is not enough space. Is Windows 10 really over 120GB or am I doing something wrong?

When transferring the data, it will assume you are transferring everything, you need to first decrease the partition to 111.78gb, then transfer it, maybe smaller if you can

You need to shorted the partition in disk management, then when you transfer you need to just send the used partitions and not the unallocated stuff

Can't you reinstall windows and keep all your files?

I may be wrong.
