SelynCatto / [Guide] Dual-booting Windows 10 and Arch Linux sharing a root partition.md
Last active March 17, 2024 08:05
Notes and guides on how to install arch and windows on the same partition.

Experimental Guide: Installing Arch Linux alongside Windows 10 while sharing a root partition.

Disclaimer: This guide is highly experimental and may encounter issues. Please proceed with caution and at your own risk. Once you've used ntfs2btrfs, the Microsoft Store may be broken as appx packages require NTFS. Unless you find a way to fool it or bypass the check, you can't install more appx packages.

There is also an issue where graphical components such as acrylic blur in Windows desktop apps won't work, GPU acceleration should still work properly in games etc.

Recommendations

  • It is recommended that you use a tool such as Ventoy which you can get from here as it allows you to have multiple ISOs on the same USB drive with an easy to use boot menu for access, this allows you to quickly switch between utilities as we do in this guide.
