The installation of each new Windows release is performed easier than the previous one and requires less effort from the user. With Windows 10 output, this task has simplified nowhere: now to install an operating system on a computer, no special knowledge and ingenious applications need. I don't even need the "Windows" distribution - the installation program "I learned" to download it myself. She itself creates an installation media - a DVD or flash drive. The user remains only to respond to requests and execute instructions that are understandable even to those who do this for the first time.

Today we will tell how the net installation of Windows 10 is held on any laptop and stationary PC. Under clean installation, the installation of the OS on the carrier, where there is no operating system (for example, on new computer or formatted hard drive). Or where it is, but is subject to complete overwriting without saving the installed software, accounts and settings. By the way, do not worry about the license: if you put the system in return for legally activated, it can be saved. And we will not hide from you what to do for this.

  • or file set.
  • Utility for transfer system files on the installation carrier. If you are going to install Windows 10 on a PC with UEFI (advanced "BIOS"), without it you can do - the files and distribution folders are enough to copy to the USB flash drive. By the way, in Windows 8 and 10 iSO image You can open in the Explorer as a regular folder, but in earlier systems it will be necessary for this. special application, for example, any program-archiver.
  • The computer on which you will prepare the loading flash drive.

Cooking a flash drive

If you do not have a pre-prepared distribution of "dozens", easier and more convenient to charge it to download Microsoft Media Creation Tools utility and write to the USB flash drive or DVD.

The utility does not require installation on a PC, just run it with administrator rights.

After launch Media Creation Tools:

  • In the License Conditions window, click "Accept".

  • To the question "What do you want to do?" Reply: "Create a media for another computer."

  • In the "Select Parameters" section, we define the language of the system, the release ("home for one PC" or "Windows 10") and the architecture (bit rate) - 64 or 32. If the selection options are inactive, the "Use recommended parameters" checkbox should be removed.

  • Further select Drive: USB - to create boot flash drive, or ISO file - to download the image that you will later record on the DVD.

  • By selecting a USB device, press "Next" and we are waiting for 30-50 minutes, while the program downloads the distribution and creates an installation media. At this time, the computer is available for use.

  • It's time to go to the installation, you will be informed by the message: "USB flash memory device is ready."

If you downloaded a distribution in advance or you have no stable Internet access, use other tools to create installation media. For example:

  • RUFUS. Works without installing. To write the operating system on the USB flash drive, it is enough to specify the location of the distribution, as well as determine the scheme of the partition and the type of system interface: MBR for computers with BIOS (old), GPT for computers with UEFI (new, released later than 2013) or MBR for computers with UEFI ( If there are disks marked according to the MBR) on the PC with UEFI).

  • From under the operating system. It can be used if you plan to reinstall or display the "dozen" from scratch to another disk section.
  • When loading from the installation media (via BIOS). A universal version that is suitable for installing the system to a new computer, and to reinstall the old copy of Windows.

When choosing the first option, open boot disk or flash drive in the explorer and run the setup.exe file.

When selecting the second - download the computer from the installation media.

How to upload a pc or laptop from a flash drive

BIOS SETUP utility on different computers It has a different interface. To enter it, it is necessary immediately after turning on the machine and appears on the manufacturer screensaver screen, press a specific key. What kind of screen saver window is usually indicated. Most often it is delete, F2 and Escape, sometimes F1, F3, F10, F12 or a combination of several keys.

Opening the utility, go to the "BOOT" section. IN bIOS version Setup Utilityshown in the screenshot, this is a separate tab in the top menu.

In other versions, it is not like that, and need settings Collected in the "Advanced Bios Features" section. In order not to confuse anything in the most responsible moment, study the BIOS interface of your computer in advance and disperse that and where is located.

In the "BOOT" section you will see a list of devices from which the machine can be loaded. In the first place is usually a hard drive. You need to make it so that in the first place the computer checked the boot files is not on it, but on the flash drive. To do this, using the arrow keys, as well as F5, F6, plus and minus (the tip is located in the right half of the BIOS window), raise the USB device to the top of the list. To save the setting and exit the utility, press F10.

In the graphic versions of the UEFI, the order of devices is not needed, just click on the USB device. After that, the PC will restart and check the load from the selected media.

Main part installation

Most of the Windows 10 installation process takes place without active user participation. We'll have to work only at the beginning and a little at the end.

So, the first thing you have to do is choose the operating system language, time formats, monetary units, and key keyboard layout. If you downloaded the Russian-speaking version of Windows, the default here will be Russian.

After defining language parameters, click the Install button.

Take the license terms. To go to the next task now and later click the Next button.

Now it is necessary to determine the type of installation - as an update or "selective" (in previous versions, it was called "clean"). We, accordingly, need a second type.

Go to the selection of the place where "settles" new Windows. If the hard disk is not divided into partitions or you want to change their proportions, select the desired area of \u200b\u200bthe disk and click "Create".

In the "Size" field, specify the number of megabytes that you assigned for the system partition. 64-bit Windows 10 requires no less than 32 GB. Click "Apply". If necessary, create other sections in the same way, then format them.

Attention! If you want to install a system while saving a license, do not format the disk, and install the installation in the same section where the previous one is activated copy of Windows. The second important factor in conservation of activation - new system There must be the same version as old. If you install Windows 10 Ultimate instead of HOME, it will not work without losing a license!

After the end of working with a disk can relax - the next 40-60 minutes process will go without your participation. If you want, just watch it.

Approximately 1/4 of the time will take copy files.

Following the computer will reboot and continue the installation. The main part of the time on the screen will hang windows logo and rotate the "wheel". At what stage is the process, you can understand the bottom of the screen.

It's time to move to active actions again, because the installation is nearing. When you see the offer to increase the speed of work, click the "Use Standard Parameters" button. If you wish, you can change them later.

After upgrading you have to create a first user account. By default, administrative rights will be appointed. Here everything is simple - specify the username and enter if you need, password.

Finally - the long-awaited desktop. Everything is ready, the installation of Windows 10 is finished. We hope that she is not tired of you too much, because now you have to set up the network, design of the desktop, installation of applications and other pleasant troubles on the "coherent" of the new OS.

If Windows did not require input during installation licensed keyCheck if the place is activated. Open the Start button context menu and go to the system parameters.

Activation Information is at the bottom of the basic information about the computer. In our example, it was not fulfilled, since the "dozen" was established in virtual Machine with full zero.

If you managed to reinstall with the license saving, you can delete the C: \\ Windows.old folder in which the files of the previous copy of the system are located. They no longer need - the activation information was successfully transferred to the new one.

How to install a system from a hard disk

There are situations when neither flash drives or DVDs do not refuse. In short, nothing but a hard disk of the same computer to install Windows 10.

To install "dozens" from a hard disk, you must comply with 3 conditions:

  • Have a distribution. More convenient - in the form of a set of files and folders. If you have only an ISO image, you will have to unpack it, for example, using the archiver application (WinRAR, 7-Zip and analogs) or windows Explorer (Only in the "eight" and "dozen").
  • Have an additional partition on a hard disk with a capacity of 3 GB. Preferably free.
  • The computer should be downloaded from the same disk. If not, then you will need a media C Live CD / Live USB (portable operating system), like Bartpe, Alkid Live CD, etc. Their images you can easily find on the network.

The installation file carrier will serve a hard disk, more precisely, its additional partition. The operating system will need to copy the distribution and creating its bootloader.

Installation order

  • Load a computer from a hard disk or carrier with a portable OS.
  • Copy Windows 10 distribution files and folders to the root of an additional partition (which is not in which the system will be installed).

  • Rename the download file (BootMGR), for example, in "Win10". The length of his name should not exceed 5 characters.

Now you have to create a distribution loader using the Bootice utility. Instead, you can use other download management tools, but we have chosen Bootice, as we consider it the easiest and most convenient tool.

  • Run the utility (installation it does not require). In the "Physical Disc" section, select the "DESTINATION DISC) list of a computer. Click the MBR control button (Process MBR).

  • Mark the "Grub4dos" item and click Install / Config (Install / Config).

  • In the "Rename GRLDR" section, write a new file name loading windows 10 (as you remember, we called it "Win10") and click "Save to Disk). Click OK in the message about the successful bootloader and close the utility.

It remains to restart the computer. The next time you start, the control will receive the Windows 10 installation program, and then it will be the same as when installing the system from the flash drive.
