  3. Fresh restart of PC, now OS gone, how to reinstall using USB

    The USB/Disk you insert to install an operating system should be bootable i.e. the BIOS should be able to find the file on your USB/Disk and initiate the boot.

    It may have happened that the USB your prepared is not bootable.

    Here are the steps to follow:

    1. Make a bootable USB of Windows from the ISO using a program "Boot Camp Assistant" on mac. Follow the guide here: How to create a Windows 10 installer USB drive from a Mac
    2. Insert USB in your PC and start it.
      • If you see 'press any key to boot from USB" then, press any key and windows installer will load.
      • If you don't see it, Go to your system BIOS settings, and change the order of boot devices. Keep USB at the top. -> Save changes and restart.

    Now, to follow the instructions/steps on screen and windows will guide your throughout the installation process.

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand your concern regarding the issue that you are facing.

    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if it helps

    The issue may arise if the currently loaded USB driver has become unstable or corrupt or if your PC requires an update for issues that may conflict with a USB device and Windows. This may also occur if your USB controllers may
    have become unstable or corrupt. So, I would suggest you to try the following steps and check if the issue persists.

    Method 1: Troubleshoot

    Windows 10 has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with hardware and devices. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if the issue is with your Drive. Refer these steps:

    • Press Windows key +X, select Control panel
    • Change the view by option on the top right to Large icons
    • Click on troubleshooting and click on the view all option on the left panel
    • Run the Hardware and devices troubleshooter
    Method 2:

    Remove and reinstall all USB controllers.

    • Press Windows key + X, click Device Manager.
    • In the list of hardware categories, find and expand
      Universal Serial Bus controllers.
    • Right-click every device under the Universal Serial Bus controllers node, and then click
      Uninstall to remove them one at a time.
    • Restart the computer, and let the USB controllers get reinstalled.
    Plug in the removable USB device, and then test to make sure that the issue is resolved.

    Hope this information is helpful. Do let us know if you need any further assistance, we will be glad to assist you.

    Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help
