    Windows reformat


    I installed windows 10 pro and have not activated it yet. I realized that I need windows 10 home and not pro. I was told i could reformat when I buy a home key. How do you do this?

    :)

  2. Recover or Reformat?

    The reformat won't budge?

    I did what you said and then was told to remove the CD from the CD-Rom Drive, put in the recovery CD and then press the 'OK' button to continue

    So I changed to the next disk but the OK doesn't appear to be being 'pressed'. Yes I have pushed enter on the keyboard which is what I have been using to get me through the other steps..

    Any suggestions?
