    Clean install but keep any upgrade setup preferences?


    I've done the upgrade on my 2 computers and then later I did a clean install on the laptop. What I'd like is to do a clean install on my desktop PC but I sure would love to bring back the things I setup when I did the upgrade such as the start page and desktop screens. My start screen is perfect and I hate to set it all back up from scratch if there is any way to keep it somewhere and return it.

    I will say, the clean install has always been my preference with any version of windows and it certainly made a nice difference in many ways on the laptop that I've already done both the upgrade and later the clean install.

    Thank you

    I don't really think the method in the thread below will work for you. The associated file locations will be in different places when compared to your source device. Still, it is a nice read and may provide you with clues I guess.
