  1. Completely fresh install of windows 10


    Hello!I am preparing my PC for a major upgrade, a new upgraded CPU and a new upgraded memory.I would like to have a completely fresh installation on Win 10.I have downloaded the latest version from the media creation tool onto a USB stick.At present, the C drive is on a 430Gb partition of a 1Tb Crucial MX500 SSD.Is there an optimum size for the C drive, I mainly use the PC for admin work, and I have Office and Photoshop Elements. The only game is Train Simulator Classic.Is there anything I should copy to an external drive, before I do the install?Cheers,

    :)

    Completely fresh install of windows 10

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Completely fresh install of windows 10 :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
