  1. Cleaning up my desktop originally a emachine windows 7 now 10 pro 1803


    I have not been using my desktop since I have purchased my laptop and I have been having issues with the desktop since even before the purchase of the laptop. I do have a hard drive size 464GB on the desktop which is over 50% full of stuff. I do have several flash drives not in use that I found laying around in my spare bedroom. I plan to place some TV show episodes on the flash drives as well as movies and music so I can remove them from the desktop.

    I want to have it updated as much as possible but it just seams to be very sluggish for the past year or so. I do not want to completely remove everything from the desktop if I don't have to but I do want to clean it up.

    Do any of you have any ideas of what I can try.

    And if you give me some ideas of what to do please point me to the actual tutorials since I'm still kind of new to this.

    Thank You!

    Original desktop was a windows 7 then to a 8.1 now currently a windows 10 pro version 1803.

    :)

    Query on Clean installation of Windows 10 Pro on Windows 7 Pro PC.

    Original Title: Windows 7 Pro (from MS upgrade key) to Windows 10 Pro - Clean Install

    My Gateway NV7923U X64 came with Windows 7 Home installed.

    I purchased an upgrade key from MS and upgraded to Windows 7 Pro.

    I need to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro and then do a clean install.

    • Will my existing upgraded Windows 7 Pro now upgrade to Windows 10 Pro automatically, or do I need to perform additional steps?
    • Will I be able to do a clean install and have Windows 10 Pro after upgrading?

  3. Clean Windows 10 (?PRO?) install

    I have bought a legit "Windows 10 Pro" key of a key website. It is legit since i'm currently using it for over a year now. I currently have Windows 10 Pro installed on my PC and I want to do a clean install. I just can't find the windows 10 Pro download in the tool. But if i could use a windows 10 pro key with a normal windows 10 install, I'll be good to go.

    Clean Windows 10 (?PRO?) install

    Where exactly did you get this "windows pro" key from? If it's off eBay or something, then perhaps you've been sold a dud key. Also, it's not clear if you mean you bought windows 10 pro or an earlier version of windows as there's no such thing as "windows pro".

    Do you have an Windows 7 or 8.1? If so, install that, download the ISO with the media creation tool and burn it to disc. Then run it as an upgrade. After that, the components hash of your PC will give you a digital entitlement for a clean install, so just bought off that disc, wipe the partitions and install it clean. It will auto activate over the internet once installed.
