Instructional Video of Burning ISO to CD/DVD/USB: • Windows 10: How To Eas...
Note: This method follows a path that requires a genuine product key. This is NOT an upgrade path by selecting the Custom (aka Clean) option. If an upgrade is desired, at 2:33 in the video select the top option of "Upgrade: Install Windows and keep files, settings, and applications"
Doing a clean install is quite simple, as long as you make sure you have a valid license. Here’s what you need to do:
Back up all your data first! Doing a clean install erases everything on your hard drive-apps, documents, everything. So, we do not recommend continuing until you have backed up any and all of your data.
If you bought a copy of Windows 10, you will have a license key in the box or in your email. Grab this license key and have it on hand.
If you were previously a Windows 7 or 8 user, you are eligible for a free upgrade. However, according to Microsoft, you have to upgrade an existing computer to do so. So, even if you want to do a clean install, wait for the Windows 10 update to hit your computer, then install the upgrade first. It feels like a waste of time, but it’s the only way to ensure you you get your free license. Once you’ve done so, you won’t need a key-Windows will just “know” your computer from then on, even if you erase the drive. Just skip any prompts for license keys, and after installing Windows 10 it should activate itself automatically.
Update, November 2015: Microsoft has finally fixed this convoluted process, and you no longer need to upgrade a computer to Windows 10. before doing a clean install. If you’re installing the latest build of Windows 10, you can skip this step and follow the below instructions to do a clean install. When prompted for a key, enter your Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 key to activate Windows 10.
Once you’ve acquired your license key or installed the free Windows 10 upgrade, head to this page and download Microsoft’s Media Creation Tool. Launch it when it finishes downloading.
Select the “Create installation media for another PC” option and click Next (even if you’re using the computer on which you’re installing Windows 10).
Choose your language and edition of Windows. If you bought Windows 10, it’ll say which edition you have on the box or in your email. If you upgraded from Windows 7 or 8, you can check which version you have under Control Panel, System and Security, System.
Choose what kind of media you want to create. We recommend using a USB flash drive.
The Media Creation Tool will download and burn the installation files for you. When it’s done, restart your computer, keeping your flash drive plugged in.
Boot from your flash drive. You can usually do this by pressing F12 (or a similar key) at startup, then choosing your flash drive from the list that appears. If that doesn’t work, watch this tutorial for more options.
You should be greeted with the Windows 10 installer. Follow the initial prompts and, when given the option, choose “Custom: Install Windows Only”.
Select the hard drive you want to install Windows 10 on. If you aren’t sure which drive or partition it is, look for the largest one, or the one that says “Primary” in the right column-that’s probably it (but make extra sure before continuing, because you will erase that hard drive!)
Click the “Format” button. (If the Format button is grayed out, click “Delete”, then click “New”.) Press Next to install Windows on that drive.
Allow the installation wizard to guide you through the rest of the process.
There may be other methods that work (we’re still investigating), but this method worked well for me. Once you’ve installed Windows 10, just grab all your favorite apps and enjoy setting up your fresh machine!
This tutorial will apply for computers, laptops, desktops, and tablets running the Windows 10 operating system (Home, Professional, Enterprise, Education) from all supported hardware manufactures, like Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, and Samsung).

Yes।।। But you'll not be able to use it । It will get stored in a windows.old named folder
I might’ve had a stroke, I’m not sure (still recovering)
The only video I trust moving forward

I have to do this tomorrow, so ty for the demo. I hope it installs all the drivers too....

Hi i'm really hoping you see this message. I'm trying to boot from the Windows CD as well but i always get stuck at 1:45 where its just a blue screen and nothing else. The cursor appears after a while but thats it. Any idea what might be causing this?
Hey my pc turned off while installation and not its not turning on.

Sameeee!
Firstly thanks. Secondly thanks for speaking English. Question... i have windows 7 that upgraded to 10. I want to format 10 clean from disk. I bought windows 10. Where do i get the code and should i reinstall 7 and upgrade to 10??? Help
When there is ˝Getting files ready for instalation (___%)˝ on 51% it just stop doing that and there is message ˝Windows cannot install required files. The file may be corrupt or miissing..........¨
I think maybe DVD is broken....
It won’t load the CD but it does have a reaction to it, takes longer to load up no hard disk found screen... any ideas?
I think you should use a dvd
Boy this video helped me out a lot
Glad it helped!
@@MDTechVideos yeah if I wouldn't of found this video I probably wouldn't of figured it out. Thanks again
Does this delete files. I'm trying to resolve my blue screen problem and planning to do a reinstall with the windows cd. Will this delete all my files?
Please did it delete your files if u ever tried it? I need to know
my disk did not ask for a product key. it just installed home edition, as apparently the previous license key is somewhere stored on the MoBo or in the Bios and apparently no one can tell me how to remove that.
Thx you are so so good and helpfull
Glad to help.
hey why you blur the keys we need them
Because he pays unlike you pay for it
LOL
Some keys can only be used only a certain amount of times. (usually only once)
maghf0or fuk you
maghf0or moron
Stuck at 66% since should I wait or cancel pleas it’s urgent??
how to record your formating?
Vm
This video helped some much! No more wasted time
My pc is currently frozen at 0 percent on getting files ready for installation(I can’t even move the mouse)
How do you span the install .iso over multiple CD-RWs in the first place?
Ooh ooh I know this one!! I think it can only go on ones that are ^not^ rewritable-u know the kind that are like one and done? When it fills one cd, it puts an end thingy on it to close it out, and Windows should prompt for another disk...at least that’s how it used to work...
Just what I needed to see, thank you!
Glad to help.
I have a burning question. Let’s say I have a laptop that’s really outdated which was already occupied with windows 7. And the hard drive is compatible with up to windows 7 license. Would I still be able to install windows 10 using the cd or would I get an error ?
I just did my computer, it was running windows Vista, now it's smooth! 😁
This video is awesome brother love from nepal💕💕
Your welcome!
Kasari yrr🥺
This is a good tutorial fast and easy yet DON'T use express settings as MS Bogs your PC down with every app going.Must say never had so much trouble with any OS than this one. That's because they appear to corrupt the operating system with their seemingly untested so-called updates and so-called up-grades.
You are welcome
Bro will this work if we don't have any operating system?
Yes, the cd is booted through bios. Just strike f12 as the computer is booting. (Assuming you use dell)
Thanks alot for the video! Just one question (i'm a complete dummy btw) If i choose format at the start. Does it format the ssd the before installing win 10? I'd like a fresh ssd with everything gone.
You're awesome and fast and very clear ❤
You're welcome
I never get asked for activation just straight to no drivers found screen
Great video, ive just had the bad luck of apparently not having curl on my mac.
My computer turned off and on and failed to boot after. All troubleshoot methods aren’t working. I inserted a cd to boot a new windows but If I click install now from the CD, will I lose all my current data in the pc?
does it work with any computers that has a different operation system from Windows? I have a computer with Endless operation system and i want to switch it up to Windows
On this part: 2:31
Can I click on 'Upgrade: Install Windows and keep files, settings, and applications'? So, it won't delete my personal data in my PC. 😊
Thank you Champ....just what I need to do. It is time for me to upgrade now. :)
Cheers
Glad to help.
insert the windows 10 cd, shutdown N press f12 button upon restart????
Bro at this setion I accidentally deleted the disk drive IT SELF! How to recover the disk drive not the data! It won't show no more!
thank you so much. Only your video is solved my problem. Tnq so much sir.
You're welcome!
do i need my product key if i already have windows 10?
If you're re-installing it from Windows? No.
Mine was an upgrade from Windows 8 and didn't need the serial key for it.
Plus had a virus a few moths back and returned Windows 10 to factory settings. Didn't ask for my serial key.
A Clean install from your bios? Yeah, you will need it.
Brings back memories.👍
Glad UA-cam brought back the ability to search channels from oldest to newest content.

Your welcome. Thanks for sharing. (:
MDTechVideos Hi I really need help what option do I choose in the boot menu if I have an usb flash drive for the recovery? Thanks!!

IT DID HELP THX THX THX THX TYSM TY U ARE THE BEST I SUBSCRIBE NOW AND LIKE THE VIDEO I HAD WINDOWS 7 FOR YEARS AND NOW I CHANGED IT TO WINDOWS 10 FINALLY TYSM!!!!
Thanks for the great video. I do have a question for you but probably won't get an answer since this video is almost 4 years old. I downloaded and installed Windows 10 Pro from the Microsoft website deciding to keep my files and folders since I have a lot of them. But I want to set up my old PC with Windows Home from DVD on the same network. Will I be able to set up a 2nd computer using the new key? I won't be able to download the free version to my other computer without paying for it which cost me twice as much.
Those Windows 10 keys you get on ebay dirt cheap can't be trusted either since they aren't authorized by Microsoft who can and do shut down the system or render Windows as not genuine where Microsoft updates will no longer be downloaded to protect the computer at the end of a year.
If you can kindly elaborate, I will do my best to assist.
Can i choose upgrade installation instead of custom?

Do we have to copy and paste the Product key to the box? I'm confused
thank you so much for helping me
Happy to help
Can you use the product key you already had with windows 7
I put in the windows key and everything and it was going through the installation process and my computer restarted and it said to boot from the CD again
and I had to put the key in again so idk
wolfcam0838 123 you have to take out the disk or USB when the windows restarts or the pc will be told to boot off of that disk or USB so right when windows installs and restarts take out the disk or usb
TheGaming Heaven I took out the cd and it didn't do anything different,just kept restarting
Why when I install it, it takes forever to copy files? It doesn't even go further from 0%
If you can kindly elaborate, I will do my best to assist.
@@MDTechVideos so i reach 3:14 and it stays at 0% forever... using a CD
Is the issue still a problem?
@@MDTechVideos I had to change the format style of the hard drive using Command prompt. I fixed it by now.
Good to hear!
I have a full C: disk would it be safe for me to format or delete then install?
It has a total of 27.9 GB
Please reply asap
It's okay if I don't format a partition?
It will format automatically for the drive you select to install Windows 10 on (unless you select "upgrade" instead of doing a clean install).
Using custom install will format the partition automatically or we have to format is manually
I install the windows 10 home disk, but nothing happens... A little help?
Please elaborate.
Try restartting your computer
Hi sir can you tell me how you record your screen..
When you are making this kind of videos.

I think multiple desktop
Can i install windows 10 in my new build pc by using CD i brought from amazon??
If i click on upgrade, is there any personal file could be deleted

Please my system refuse to install the cd

When it says press any key, I press a key and nothing happens, it just boots to windows.
Change your boot order to read DVD or USB first.
Oujia w8 and will work
which is better windows 10 or windows 7
Do you have to extract the iso to a custom disk because I am trying to boot off my custom boot disk but it wont boot up to install Win10. If anyone sees this can you please reply back as soon as possible.

Hey there.
I just followed the steps from this vid and I successfully got the w10.
But then I realised I can choose what windows I wanted to go for (when I started the pc): windows 10 or windows 7.
I was curious so I went for windows 7. Guess what. Windows 7 just popped up and I had all my apps and files there.
Then I went to windows 10 alternative and it was clean, but I had all my files into one of some folders from This Pc.
Basically, I’ve my important data on both of my windows.
*Note: when I installed windows 10, I clicked on customize (clean installation).
Im wondering if windows 10 overlapped windows 7 with all my files. That is NOT clean at all.
What should i do? I’m confused lol
If you can kindly elaborate, I will do my best to assist.
MDTechVideos It’s alright. I could delete one of windows and keep just one of them. Thank you for being prompt.
