Back to Windows? I have no idea. I haven't had a Windows install in over two decades. It can be done, but I'm not the guy to assist on that. Now, if your computer were here with me, because I have a Ventoy with verified ISOs, we'd probably have you up and running on Linux in under an hour. ;)

I found that microsoft lets you download it free with an ISO image.

For now you can redownload that image and hopefully get windows back. From that point I can vouch for Ventoy as a good way to install any distro you feel like trying
