Windows will always assume that it is the only operating system on a computer. It's not interested in sharing.

It doesn't overwrite - it writes. That there's something in it already that you want to keep is entirely your fault. If it was another Windows, you'd want it overwritten so they're actually doing you a favour. It doesn't matter that it isn't.
