How to reinstall windows 10?

Question

Windows

Hello! I want to reset windows 10. A pirated version was installed, I want to change it to the official one. I know that you first need to download from the office. windows 10 website to a USB flash drive and make it a boot disk. But then during installation there will be no problems that windows 10 is already installed or that this is a pirated version. Or will the installation be no different from switching, for example, from windows 7 to windows 10?

Answer 1

In order to get a license version, just drive the key in Windows. Everything
Installation of a pirated and a regular one is the same, just on a pirate at the end the "activator" of Windows is launched.
Do you have extra 10k for Windows?
There was an upgrade from win7 to win10. There will be a reinstall. And better with formatting the whole disk

Answer 2

if the pirate was cut and spoiled with improvers, then you can change it.
if not, then see the first answer.
And so you put Windows as usual in the same system partition, and then the old Windows will appear on the disk in the Windows.old folder. Remove the necessary documents / pictures / videos from this folder (required)
You can delete it yourself or if it's scary, the system will delete this folder automatically after some time, like 30 days.

Answer 3

Got an official key?
You can simply activate the current copy. But this is if you installed from the correct distribution.
About 10-15 years ago, distributions in the form of "Zver DVD" were distributed. And some of them were "equipped with built-in Trojans" or simply "optimized" in those places where it would be more correct not to climb.
If the goal is to get away from such a situation or previous experiments have brought the system to a non-working position, then you can install with partition formatting, and at the end activate the installed copy of the OS. There will be no traces of a "pirate past".

Answer 4

Installation will be no different. But rolling one version of the OS over another is usually not recommended anyway.
