To reinstall your Windows 10 or Windows 11 on your PC, follow the steps below:
Facing trouble with your Windows computer? Tried everything trick in the book, but still can’t make it work normally? Don’t worry—a quick reinstall might just do the job. Now, lucky for you, there are a myriad of different ways to reinstall your Windows computer. We’ll go over all of them one by one. Let’s get started with “Reset This PC” option.
One of the most common ways to reset a PC is through the Reset This PC option, available in the Windows Settings. Here’s how you can reinstall your Windows through Reset This PC:
As soon as you do this, a “Reset This PC” dialog box will pop open. From there, you can choose the following options:
If you go with Keep My Files, baring your personal files, all your apps and files in Windows will be deleted. With Remove Everything, on the other hand, everything on your PC—including your personal files—will be removed, leaving you with a clean slate of Windows.
Depending on your needs, choose either of the options and on the next screen you will get asked to either go for a Cloud download or a Local reinstall. Pick the one you’d like, and follow the instructions ahead.
Finally, you’ll be asked for confirming the reset. Click Yes and proceed with the Reset. After the reset is complete, a fresh copy of Windows 10 or Windows will be installed on your PC.
Sometimes also referred to as clean install, you always have an option to reinstall your Windows 10 or Windows 11 with the help of Media Creation tool or a third-party app like Rufus.
Again, just to remind you, similar to “Reset This PC” option from above, doing a ‘clean install’ will remove all your existing files and data. So, before going ahead with it, we’d suggest you’ve solid backup in place beforehand.
To install your Windows from the USB, you’ll first need to create a bootable USB drive. Here’s how you can do that:
After you’ve the bootable USB drive, you now need to change the boot order. This is what will actually allow you to boot from the UBS drive. Here’s how you can get started:
Now open the Boot page and set the boot order such that your PC boots from the USB drive.
Since you’ve changed the boot order, and you also have the bootable USB drive in your hands now, all that’s left to do is reboot your PC with the USB plugged in. Do this and your PC will boot up from USB the next time. Simply follow the on-screen instructions from here on and reinstall your Windows operating system from here.
If the above two methods didn’t work, don’t worry. We’ve another method in our bag of tricks, which is to reinstall your Windows through the .iso file. This method also comes handy at times when you just want to upgrade your PC and, therefore, don’t want to spend the whole time on formatting the older version of Windows.
Here’s how you can get started:
Now wait for a while until the installation gets complete.
Reinstalling your Windows doesn’t have to be complicated. We hope our short guide reflected that, and helped you reinstall your Windows without too many difficulties. That said, be it a reinstallation or just a simple upgrade, before you take any such big actions on your Windows, make sure you back up your data securely.
