When you download and run the Windows Media Creation Tool, it’s not an installer but the program that actually makes a bootable Windows 10 installer. Why does the Windows Media Creation Tool wipe a drive?
Other things someone in the house grabs the “wrong drive” thinking drive was empty or not needed when in fact it was. Often I get customers that do no understand the tool will wipe a whole drive and use an external hard drive or USB that has data but they think it will not be erased. In the example above if anything other than the “D drive” was selected I would loose data since those five drive are internal hard drives wither terabytes of data or more each. However it will show every other drive connected (internal, external USB hard drive and flash drive). The Windows media creation tool will not show your C Drive, the drive that Windows is installed and running on. The tool even though it specifics a USB flash drive, it is not limited to a USB flash drive. What Leads to Data Loss with the Windows Media Creation Tool?
