Instructions & support for de-installing Windows 10 and re-installing it

Anonymous

Hello,

After lots of good help from several people, we've decided that my Windows 10 is corrupted, and it's causing the following issue:

     - Entering keyboard data into a 3rd party app.  (and even into Microsoft Word sometimes) causes the 1st two characters to be NOT typed into the App.

       and need to be re-typed.

All attempts to fix this have failed.       I have made nightly backups made of all my personal data.

Can someone in the Community send me the precise set of steps I need to follow, to successfully de-install and re-install the O/S ?

And could that same person help me during the process, with any questions or problems I encounter ?

Thank you,

Gary

    Hi Gary

    Under your last post, click the 3 dots and choose 'Edit'

    Please remove that product key form your post, you don't want others seeing that, this is a public forum . . .

    Log into https://account.microsoft.com/services/

    Under 'Have an Office Product' click 'Enter Product Key'

    From there you can install Office . .

    Hi Gary

    Do you have a Product Key for Office that you can use to re-install Office?

    If not, go to http://www.office.com and if you're not already signed in, select Sign in

    Under Subscriptions and Licences, do you see your Office 2013 licence listed there?
