    I would try Microsoft's own tool first:
    Start fresh with a clean installation of Windows 10

    Like I said it's been years since I used it so I can't say it's worth trying or not. Back then I never had a problem running it on my any of my OEM computers.

    Edit: If I remember correctly it was a stand alone program. No install necessary. If I had a OEM install with bloatware I would see if it's still available and try it. After a Macrium image was made first though. *Smile

    I see my memory was right about no installer.
