Hi Lse123polis

Yes, the installation process will allow you to delete the partitions on an SSD.

    Hi Lse123polis

    Yes, if I had a backup of my personal files, I would perform a clean install of Windows.

    Click this link:

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...

    to download the Media Creation Tool (Click on Download Tool Now), with that you can download the latest Windows 10 ISO (Select Create Installation Media for Another PC), you can create a bootable USB flash drive (min 8GB) using that tool

    Then, Boot your PC from the Installation Media you just created (change Boot Order in your BIOS) to begin installing Windows 10

    Since you previously had Windows 10 installed and activated on that PC during the installation process skip the steps which ask for a product key and select the option 'I am Reinstalling Windows 10 on this PC', and activation will not be an issue, your PC will have a digital entitlement stored on the Microsoft Activation Servers

    Hi Lse123polis,

    No, you cannot keep your files during a Windows installation, you must back them up before the installation.
