    Hard Drive is failing. How do I reinstall Windows 10 to a new HDD?


    So my hard drive I have had for a long time is finally failing. I can hear the noise of it starting to fail. I went and got a new Hard drive today. I would like to install it into my PC and reinstall Windows 10. How can I do this and transfer all my other files over to my new HDD. I dont have a disk with windows 10 on it. I did the free upgrade from Windows 8.

    :)

    Reinstalling Win10 On New Hard Drive, current hdd is failing and i need to replace.

    Reinstalling Win10 On New Hard Drive, current hdd is failing and i need to replace fast! Backup and restore misses several key files so can't transfer to new hdd.

    I need to reinstall my winOS on a new hdd, current hard drive is failing fast! I bought Win8, upgraded to 8.1 free, then 10 free. I can't find Win 10 Product Key Only Product ID Listed In SysInfo.

    Can I download Win10 for free somewhere, and locate the Product Key to install for free, or do I have to buy the complete WinOS 10 Pro to the tune of $200!!!? Help Please! Thanks so much!

    Hi Rodolpho,

    We want to know about the issue you're having with your recovery drive. Please answer the questions below:

    • Are you trying to reinstall Windows 8 or Windows 10?
    • If you already upgraded to Windows 10, were you able to create a new copy of the recovery drive?

    We suggest creating a new copy of the recovery drive and then follow the steps provided by Andre Da Costa above this thread.
