Reverting to windows from linux (G3 3579)

I installed ubuntu in my system and removed windows. But now I want to roll back to windows 10. I created a bootable Windows USB drive and tried booting it but every time I do that and After the "Install Now" screen  I get the No drivers found error.I understand that this might have been because of the filesystem so I formatted both the SSD and the HDD drive to NTFS so windows can recognize them. But even after that I run into the "No drivers found" error.
I am not sure what to do at this point to install windows 10 back in my system.
Note: The laptop came with windows preinstalled and I didn't create a recovery image before installing linux.
Please help.

Likely your installation media (install.wim/install.swm file is corrupt). How did you make the Bootable USB? On Linux or on another Windows computer using the Media Creation Tool?

Hi @Philip_Yip

Try downloading the ISO with the Media Creation Tool and making it with Rufus instead.
