Reading more on that page looks like you should not change the setting unless
you are prepared to re-install your Windows; but also looks like you cannot
install linux beside your Windows unless you _DO_ change the setting.
Can you backup and then restore your existing windows setup?
I have saved the Win-10 user data, but regard destroying and recreating
Windows as something only to be attempted in the event of a machine
failure, not simply my wish to experiment with Linux.
That's why I bought an external HDD - idea was Linux goes on that, not
touching Win-10 or the Win-10 user data on the SDD.
Best regards
