Getting this error while installing Manjaro in dual boot.
The installer failed to create partition on disk ‘ST1000LM035-1RK172’

Failed to add partition ‘New Partition’ to device ‘/dev/sda’
I’m installing Manjaro on a separate drive from where my windows is installed, but a guy on reddit said that I’ll have to shrink the windows volume and install it their.
So now the problem is I can’t move back to windows, whenever opening the PC, I’m simply getting the Manjaro boot menu, which asks to install as ‘Open Source’ or ‘Proprietary’ software and other options. I tried going to BIOS setup but apparently, unable to enable the secure boot option as well.
Any help on this? Can I solve this error from Manjaro interface or if not, how do I move back to windows?

Also when I remove my USB and restart my PC, I get this screen saying ‘No bootable device’: https://i.imgur.com/L6QBXu2.jpg
That screen where you have to select between open-source and proprietary drivers is the boot ISO environments. So it doesn’t start from the HDD/SSD, it tries to start the ISO environment, which is usually a USB thumb drive lately.
Thanks! Here are the images:

I’ve disabled secure boot, fast boot, legacy. Can’t find the AHCI and Optane RST option in the BIOS settings tho.
While running the above command, I do get
scheme: MBR
The second commands echos BIOS and the last one prints out these values:
BootCurrent: 0002
Timeout: 0 seconds
BootOrder: 2001,2002,2004
Boot0002* USB Hard Drive (UEFI) - SanDisk (SanDisk)
Boot2001* EFI USB Device
Boot2002* EFI DVD/CDROM
TBH, I don’t exactly know what most of these mean, I’m a complete newbie to this.
