How to get back ASUS preinstalled apps after Windows 10 clean install?

Hi Draco,

We appreciate you for being a part of Windows 10.

As you have performed clean installation to install Windows 10, many of the apps will be uninstalled which came preinstalled with the computer.

If you have the installation media of Asus applications, you may install them using the same.

For further information on how to install the preinstalled apps which came with computer, you may contact the Asus (Device manufacturer) to install the latest drivers which supports to run the preinstalled apps.

I hope the above information helps. Kindly let us know if you need any further assistance with Windows. We are glad to assist you.

Thank you.

 

How to get back ASUS preinstalled apps after Windows 10 clean install?

True, except that when I opened my control panel after clean install the only apps I had 3 apps, none of which were the ASUS preinstalled apps (except ASUS Smart Gesture). If I try downloading the apps online from ASUS websites then it says for example,
when I downloaded and tried to open Power4Gear it said that "this app only works on ASUS computers".

 

Clean Install Workaround for Vista

You may remember this news story on techPowerUp! a couple of days ago relating to the lack of clean installs when using the Upgrade Editions of Vista, which required an old OS to be installed. However, Paul Thurrott has managed to find a workaround for this issue, which ironically lets users do a clean install Vista without any previous version of Windows, albeit a little tedious. Here are the steps:

• Boot from the Windows Vista Upgrade DVD as normal
• When prompted for a product code, leave this blank
• Select the version of Vista you have purchased and let Vista install
• When you boot to your desktop for the first time, run the Vista setup from Windows
• This time enter your product key
• When asked whether you want to do an Upgrade of Custom install, select custom and choose a clean install
• Windows will now install for a second time and you should be able to activate it

Remember, these steps are only advised for use in order to achieve a clean install of Vista, it is only legal to use the upgrade editions if you have previously purchased the appropriate version of Windows.
