    Reuse my hard drive again to install new windows10


    Hi,

    I have a hard drive with windows 10, this windows 10 already damaged and now I need to use my hard drive again in my laptop.

    Do I need to format my C drive in this hard drive? or just ignore the formatting and install windows 10 again?

    Thanks.

    :)
