Watching this video in 2023. And holy hell you deserve a god damn award. I converted my 0 disk from a mbr to a gtp on my desktop which in turn caused me not to be able to launch windows again. Had get a usb to download the windows installer. But the fact that you showed us how to convert a Mbr to a gtp in such a quick, easy and efficient manner is amazing. No other video has come close to this one. Thank you very much.

I was trying to do a clean install of Windows 10 from Windows 8.1 and this helped me, I needed a tutorial when I downgraded and now that I'm upgrading again I had to look, this saved me from hours of frustration and regret.
Some people might think that this is a fake comment but it's genuine, thank you for making the tutorial straight to the point. Many fail to do that. Much appreciated.
