Clean Install Windows 10

This document discusses two options for performing a clean install of Windows 10. Option one involves downloading the Windows 10 installation media, using it to boot your computer, and performing a custom installation that overwrites your existing Windows partitions. Option two is to reset your existing Windows 10 installation by using the Settings app and selecting "Remove everything" to wipe your drive before installing Windows 10 fresh. Both options allow for a clean installation of Windows 10 without carrying over files from a previous Windows version.
