To re-install Windows you first need the Windows Product Key that you must have to authorize the new installation. Even if you have a computer that is working perfectly you should find and record the Key in case the operating system fails and no longer works. There are two ways to rerieve the Product Key on your computer.
1. Download and run a program like ProduKey and run it. You can then export this as a document.
2. Manually retrieve the key as follows:
In the Windows search window type cmd to open the command prompt, then type in the following:
wmic path softwareLicensingService get OA3xOriginalProductKey
The key should look something like this: RKYXV-YDV4G-VKAVH-P387V-T3XK3
Record this information.
To make an installation version of Windows, first download the file from the Microsoft website, either Windows 10 or Windows 11.
You then need to make a bootable version of the Windows file. If your computer has a CD drive you can burn the downloaded file to a disc then boot your computer from the disc. Alternately you can make a bootable version onto a USB memory stick with a program like Lili USB Creator.
If you don't have a Windows key one can be purchased from secondary sellers like Keyingo.
