    How to clean install


    Hello Ladies and Gents, I just had a question. As a Windows 10 Insider, when we receive the free upgrade to the RTM, how then do I do a clean install? I thought we'd need to burn the iso to a DVD to do that. Thank you.

    :)

  3. How to: "Clean install"

    Then if SFC is finding corrupt files, you'd need to look at the source of the installation media or something subsequently installed.

    Did you only use
    Media Creation Tool?
    Run a full scan of media with
    Malwarebytes
    of install, backup and media.

    Check now if you have a System Restore point to go all the way back to just after install, run Malwarebytes scan, SFC again.

    If not then do the install over per these steps. Delete all partitions as you said, which assures nothing can come back at you.

    After install get online to only install all Windows Updates. Run SFC scan.

    Then install each program singly using new installer downloads from only the author's website. Then run SFC again.

    If clear then import files after scanning with
    Malwarebytes,
    adjust settings, run SFC scan.

    After any subsequent change run SFC scan again.

    I'd also try slance's suggestion for a full
    Disk Check

    How to clean install

    As I understand it you first have to go the upgrade route, and, supposedly, after that you will be able to do a clean install. Not sure yet how the ISO's will be made available for the clean install.

    +1.. MS has not said how they will supply the ISO for the clean install yet.. it might be via the ESD to ISO path.
