  1. What happens to my windows 10 when i install a new OS as my main?


    So guys i am currently running windows 10 but want to install another OS as my main , so i was wondering what happens to my windows when i delete it? Will i be able to get it back on my laptop if i want to go back to windows(it was preinstalled by lenovo and is orginal)?? Is there like a factory reset which deletes my current OS and brings back windows as if my nothing happened? My laptop is lenovo thinkpad T580 Thank you

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
