    Novice Checksum Questions to check install disc


    I downloaded the .iso fil for Windows 10 from the Microsoft site.


    I ran it through the likes of


    "Windows and Office Genuine Checker ISO Verifier"


    which obviously tells me that this is a genuine as expected


    But when xhecking the resultant burnt disk it tells me it is NOT GENUINE.


    I am probably misunderstanding this but can someone help me out in laymans terms with what I am misunderstanding?


    How does it not show as Not Genuine and should I worry?

    :)

    I downloaded the .iso fil for Windows 10 from the Microsoft site.

    I ran it through the likes of

    "Windows and Office Genuine Checker ISO Verifier"

    which obviously tells me that this is a genuine (as expected)

    But when checking the resultant burnt disk, it tells me it is NOT GENUINE.

    I am probably misunderstanding this but can someone help me out in laymans terms with what I am misunderstanding?

    Why does it not show as Genuine and should I worry?

    Clean install for Novices


    Hi All,

    Has anyone done a clean install of W10??. If so for all us novices, (we are all still learning) can you please tell us how you achieved this in detail please.. What is the first step. Do we need a freshly formatted disk, can it be a freshly formatted disk..What happens if you have the downloaded ISO do you just put this in the drive, there are lots of questions people new to W10 will want to know. So can we make this thread easy to follow so that novices can understand it.. I am about to clone a disk using USB cable connection I have only one drive bay in an all in one system..I will let you know how it goes and how it worked or not!!!..(I have ordered cable from Amazon not yet arrived and paid for delivery)

    Thanks to all - Len

    Local account installation question


    I'm fairly certain that Skip this step was available in 10.0.130 - the workaround in Step 20 (back button) is no longer required.

    The currently known, as of 10.0.130, ways to create a Local account sign-in are
    • Skip this step at the MS account creation phase
    • No Internet connection during the install
    • static IP (post# 2 by Fragment) - New (to me anyway)
