  1. Can i use windows media creation tool to reinstall windows to other laptop without wiping...


    Hello,


    I just thought about this because my laptop runs into a windows problem and I needed to use the windows media creation tool thanks to this help now it's solved. It's my first time using such a tool.


    Now, I have a friend, he's also running windows home edition same as mine. His search bar at the bottom of the taskbar is not working properly I tried everything I saw on the internet to fix but nothing fixed it. The problem occurs I think because of an unfinished windows update due to lack of internet because we are in a country where the internet is pricey so not everyone can afford it.

    I just thought that can I make a copy of my windows using the media creation tool and reinstall it on his laptop without touching any of his files, I just want to reinstall the windows, that's it. Is this possible?


    Best Regards,


    Lelouch

    Reinstalling Windows 10 to sell a PC - is the 'Remove everything' option enough?

    Hello,

    I'm reinstalling Windows 10 on a laptop to sell. I would normally wipe the hard drive with DBAN and reinstall; however I have seen that Windows 10 has options which seem to do the equivalent and quicker.

    Would any information be recoverable from the 'Remove everything' or 'Restore factory settings' options? Or should I stick to DBAN and use the Windows 10 media creation tool instead?

    Many thanks,

    Layton
