How To Install Windows 10 From USB
Пікірлер: 1 000
I agree with everyone else here - this is the best video I have found on this Windows 10 install from USB, clear, to the point, and with nearly every step distinctly described. Realize that they did all this instruction in just over 4 minutes ! Compare that to the 10, 12, or 15 minute rambling and sometimes suspect videos that use dodgy 3rd party utilities or don't show each step and still take 3 times longer. Well done.

@@mr.lunatic3157 Everyone, even Microsoft, seems to forget to mention that part. I luckily had read the comments so I was ready. I pulled that booting USB drive just as the machine auto-rebooted after the installation. Ironically it is one of the few things that an uninitiated user can encounter that will totally mess them up.

Cause I already have everything on this motherboard installed just need to wire it up and boot it on, but its my firs time building one so ive been really confused on how to simply download windows lol
The best step by step tutorial so far I found on the internet. No talkshit. Just straight to the point and no long introduction.

There are many key sellers and free tools available to activate Windows 10. I tried several sources, including eBay, but they all stopped working after a couple of months. It was frustrating when my Windows kept deactivating. Once, my laptop crashed, and I couldn’t reactivate the key because it was no longer valid. Then I found a reliable company and haven't had any issues since. Their prices were also fair. Around $20-25.

I’ve literally been watching videos and doing steps from Reddit all day. This is the only video that helped me. Thanks!!!!!
I followed this video and it actually worked! I was in a reset loop at 64% when I tried to do a factory reset. This helped save me £70 to get if fixed which I was booked in to do tomorrow! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this! In my case I was trying to revert a Windows 11 laptop (which came with 11 pre-installed) back to Windows 10. I did everything the same up until the point where you install it. Before installing I had to go into the BIOS, to "Boot" and disable both default boot options. Then I disabled NvMe in the Fast Boot section, at the same time setting USB to Full Initial. Then I enabled Fast Boot. After that I Saved and resetted which brought me to the normal install screen you showed. Did everything from there the same, until it was time to reboot. When restarting it was just looping me back to the install screen. So on the next restart I entered the BIOS again. Simply reverted all the changes I had made. After saving and resetting once again, it worked! I hope this helps anyone else who had the same problems I did.

Will this same technique work with an external hard drive?
This is so helpful. I wanted to add. For those of you with an old ASUS laptop ... you may need to enable Legacy Boot (in BIOS) in order for it to recognize your USB. This had me scrambling for awhile but finally figured out to enable Legacy Boot. Once enabling Legacy Boot, make sure to Save changes and Exit. Then power off the computer. Power it back on and press Delete key or F2 (i recommend alternating between the two just in case, this is how to access the BIOS initially as well). Then a screen will pop up to select where to boot from. Your USB should display in the list. Select it by navigating with the arrow keys then press enter.
Very helpful video. Best for new users that I have found and tells you how to do everything but on thing which can be done by just reading the text.

if you log in with the Microsoft account you had before reinstalling Windows 10, your license is automatically activated because the product key is associated with the account
different times compared to windows 98 or XP etc, pain in the ass searching for drivers and windows having temper tantrums, now its all straight forward, window 10 does a pretty good job at finding all the drivers also.

Simply the best setup video on all video streaming platforms combined.
In some cases the installation setup will loop after the restart. Make sure to unplug the usb during the countdown. If you are looped back to the setup menu, remove the usb at this time, and close the setup menu so it restarts the computer.
