I'm trying pop_os because the Windows USB didn't install after my first build. Now I have a working drive, and I want to run Windows. Linux isn't suitable for this project, so I don't want it to become a hassle. I need to reformat my M.2 NVMe to NTFS since it's like my "C drive" for Linux. It's okay if the pop_os data gets lost as long as I can do that. Would anyone know how to proceed? Also, I have a 2 TB hard drive and plan to install Windows on the SSD later. If this helps, please share the relevant details.

Windows should let you change the formatting while installing if that's what you're aiming for. Make sure all other drives are disconnected except the one you wish to install. Occasionally it tries to install things unexpectedly, such as placing the bootloader on another drive.
