Windows installer will create 3 volumes from unallocated space but errors on installation. iirc the partitions are EFI, wsr(?) - each a few 100mb only max, and the main data volume which takes up the rest of the space.
When I try to install Windows onto the largest volume on the drive I get an error We couldn't create a new partition or locate an existing one.
I tried following this guide https://appuals.com/fix-we-couldnt-create-a-new-partition-or-locate-an-existing-one/ . The last time I tried I got an error about the drive having a MBR partition table.
I've used the same USB drive to install Windows 11 previously on the same machine so I'm a bit stumped as to what the problem is.
The drive had a working Windows 11 install on it until I wiped it under linux. I've recreated the partition table and zero'd out the disk but so far the issue hasn't changed.
I see there's a similar issue Windows installation: Couldn't create a new partition or locate an existing one but it doesn't resolve my problem.

The partition table has been recreated as GPT but the issue remains
