Install Windows 10 on PC Tutorial
You’ve got an ISO file and you want
to install Windows 10 to your PC? So here I will take you step-to-step to
install it.
I assume that you have had a windows 10 ISO file downloaded from link in here. Notice that if you follow the
following instructions, you must have a valid windows 10 license key. If you
have a genuine windows 7/8/8.1, I recommend you to upgrade it for free. That’s
enough, let’s start.
- First, you need to burn the ISO file to DVD or an USB to make a bootable installation windows 10. You can follow the instructions from here.
- Step 2: insert the DVD or USB to your PC and power on. During your PC starting, change the boot device to your DVD disc or USB stick on boot devices table or BIOS. To enter them, you need to press some keys depend on your PC’s brand( please refer to your PC’s manual).
- Step 3: Install it mostly by clicking the Next button.
For posterity, here are all of the
installation steps, although you could just remember the magic word “Next” and
get through it fine.
When
you first boot the computer you’ll see a screen like this one:
At
this point you can choose whether you want to upgrade Windows or install a new
custom install. Since we’re recommending that everybody install into a virtual
machine or on a test PC, you should select Custom here. You can still select Upgrade here but I recommend that you should do the upgrade after booted in to your windows by windows update.
At
this point you’ll need to pick where to install Windows 10. You might need to
delete or create a partition, but if you are using Windows 7/8/8.1 and want to fresh install windows 10, you should select the partition was installed Windows previously( usually is C: partition), click format and next. Be careful, this action will format all your data in this partition. It mean that you should backup all of your data before do it( only on the partition you suppose to install windows 10 to, others are unnecessary) if don't want to find some kind of tutorials like "How to recover data after format......"
And
now it will install.
Once the PC reboots again, you’ll be able to select the settings like whether Windows Updates are enabled (they aren’t allowed to be disabled in the preview). We’d recommend just using the express settings if you are using a test machine — use Custom if you’re really going to use the computer.
And now you can sign into your
Microsoft account. We’d recommend using a Microsoft account because otherwise
you won’t be able to use half of the new features and you may as well use Linux
or stick with Windows 7.
If you’ve setup your account
properly you’ll probably be asked to verify it in the middle. We excluded those
steps from this article, but they are pretty simple.
Now you’ll be asked how to
setup the PC. Since we wanted to test everything as a new computer, we chose to
set it up as a new PC instead, but you could copy all your settings from
another computer if you wanted to.
Want to use OneDrive? It’s
nicely integrated into Windows, so we just left it alone.
