    Format HDD -- Win 10 Installed


    I just went from Win 7 Pro to Win 10 --- very cool.
    My hard drive is clogged with a lot of old stuff; I want to reformat the drive.

    Question: how do I get a recovery / boot format for my new Win 10 installation?

    Thank you for the suggestions

    :)
