Which version we are installing ? 7 or 11?

[@Night5444]

11

[@Elderofwaukeen]

My existing drive for Windows 10 is a legacy format, and for some reason when I change the password for the administrator act (me) and try to log in to change the format, it won't recognise it so I can't change the format to do an upgrade install...If I do a clean install on a new drive, will it recognise my apps and data, or would I need to reinstall everything?

[@Alphax007]

You'll have to reinstall

[@Leviathansgard]

7:41 is it necessary to put an extra partition for the system that is a portion of the whole drive or can we direclty allocate the whole available space to the system partition ?

[@mitzhgg]

Its ok to not put extra partition

[@harshilramani02]

In 2023, when your process completes for first time just remove USB stick you plugged in for installation otherwise it will do multiple installation ..endlessly. Mine got 6 different installation of win 11😂 btw very helpful tutorials ❤

When should you unplug it?

Can I use a laptop as a substitute to download windows 11?

[@GeeksTutorial]

Sure you can.

[@cristondsouza1846]

Bro I was on stuck on asus bios utility ez mode page for 2 days and not able to boot because the hard drive I used to backup my windows 11 was not detectable. I had to use a fat 32 system pendrive to store the windows 11 as you claimed from another pc and then plug it on my pc which was stuck eternally for 2 days on that asus bios utility page. After plugging it , I pressed escape several times to allow it to come to boot page and finally my flash drive was detected . Then the clean install took some minutes to start the pc and i could gladly come out of that ez mode loop, Thanks to this video ❤️. You saved my time and effort to take it to a service center to get it checked. Kudos 👏

I don't understand why you need the 300gb partition. Why don't you just install it on the 900gb and just leave it at that?

[@fabru]

people have different needs…

[@guillaumemichallat307]

Hi. I have a partition with windows and my programs and another partition with all my personal data. So if something happens to my C: I can reinstall without lost of my datas. Also, windows start faster with that configuration.

[@Lena-vw6ye]

@@guillaumemichallat307 ohhh, I wasn't aware of configurations like that. So you created a partition for personal files, and another for the operating system, and when you wipe your computer, all your files will still be there in another partition on the hard drive. Interesting.

[@guillaumemichallat307]

@@Lena-vw6ye exactly. On one side windows and programs. Other side personal files. It makes the reinstalation easyer

[@Altered-Beast]

​@@guillaumemichallat307 isn't that the same thing as backing up to an external before formatting ?

Hello.. I have followed each step ad per you guided.. only thing is I entered the original serial key before installing windows 11...

[@sandipkrgupta]

For a Dell computer, which is the right option - Creating a Windows 11 Recovery USB using the native Win 11 recovery drive or using Dell OS Recovery Tool to create a recovery USB?

[@eamonahern7495]

That's where I went wrong. I never did step 2. I thought it was just a case of downloading and then installing. I recently got a faulty SSD replaced under warranty on my PC. But my pc still asked for boot media when I insalled the new ssd. I downloaded the file to my laptop, transferred it to the USB and booted the pc from the USB. It didn't install windows and I was puzzled as to why. My laptop is windows 10 and not 11 compatible, whereas my PC had windows 11 before the ssd failed, but I should still be able to download 11 to the laptop and make a windows 11 bootable USB judging by this video. I hope my files on the hard drive on the pc will be unaffected once I get it up and running again. Any files or folders not backed up can be replaced though. I don't mind doing them again. Edit: I hope the partition part won't be tricky. I won't partition the ssd as I don't think I'll need to. I'll use that for drivers and os and save other files and folders like documents, photos and videos to the hard drive.
