Windows 10 Clean Install Guide 🚀

This Windows 10 clean install guide will show you, step by step, how to install Windows 10 by downloading the latest copy from the Microsoft Website to a USB flash drive. You'll end up with a fresh/clean copy of Windows 10 on your PC. I'll show you the entire process without leaving any of the steps out. Sometimes a fresh start is the best way to go!

* This video assumes that you have already backed up all of your data and it assumes that you want to completely erase the PC's hard drive to get a fresh start. I'll use fast-forwarding to zip through the boring parts. Follow this guide for a hassle-free Windows 10 setup.

READ THIS! -- If you are unable to skip connecting to a network and entering a Microsoft Account, there are 2 EASY options available during the Windows 10/11 setup. I made a short video about one of them here: https://youtu.be/UdyP_bHSUlE

Essentially, when the Windows Setup program asks you to join a network and/or enter a Microsoft Account, you press Shift-F10 (or Shift-FN-F10 if you're on a laptop) and then type the following command in the command prompt window and press Enter: OOBE\BYPASSNRO

Another command that also works if OOBE\BYPASSNRO doesn't is: start ms-cxh:localonly

You only need to run one or the other. Both will allow you to create a "Local Account" and the Windows Setup program will continue without Internet access. If you don't want to be bothered with creating account security questions, don't enter a password and it will continue forward without them.

I wish I could add a new segment to my YT video but that is not allowed. Hopefully the people who need this information will find the answer here.

FLASH DRIVE: https://amzn.to/4jVpXhB
If you need to buy a new Flash Drive to save your files onto before erasing the drive, here is one that I personally use and recommend. It has the older USB-A connector on one side and the newer USB-C connector on the other side. Watch my detailed review about it here: https://youtu.be/3iGUir3uIbc
