Windows 10: Jesse's 10 Install

Discus and support Jesse's 10 Install in Windows 10 Installation and Upgrade to solve the problem; Oh! Well, I thought doing a clean install meant removing the Windows 7 software, and then use a Windows 7 ISO to install back on the system. That`s...

    That`s exactly what a clean install is, but you don`t ever remove software, you just install Windows over it.

    A lot of people get confused about that.

    Including me apparently. I thought a clean install was if you formatted the disk first, not just "install Windows over it".

    Live and learn though apparently.

    My interpretation of a clean install has always been: format the disk(s), fresh OS, clean Reserve, fresh Registry, etc...

    In the screenshot, I have circled the reason why I feel the need to do a Clean Install. But, if it's not a good idea then I will not do it. But, how do I get my usage back down to normal?

    Live and learn though apparently. Of course you format it. But when doing a clean custom install windows will do that on it`s own.

    I assume by "usage" you mean the amount of disk space that is being used. I suggest 2 things:

    1. run this program and post the resulting picture --> WinDirStat

    2. Run the command below in an elevated command prompt and tell me what it says under "Allocated" and Maximum"

    vssadmin list shadowstorage

    If it's not a good idea, then no. But, I am afraid I won't have any space on my hard drive for Windows 10 from looking at that screenshot and what I circled.

    You just need to get rid of some of the garbage on there. You have over 200 GB taken up out of 282, that`s alot of stuff.

    If you clean install windows, all your data and programs will be gone.

    A 320 GB hard drive is only 298 in windows, and you have another partition taking up space. (recovery)

    Post a shot of disk management when you get back.

    Buy an external hard drive while you`re out LOL *chuckle

    Help him what ?

    He`s done.

    One more thing Jesse, when you create a VM for windows, by default it makes up a 60 GB hard drive, I`m not sure if that stays in affect all the time.

    Wolfgang might know for sure.

    So that`s 60 GB right there.
