With my Notebook there is no Win DVD / CD supplied. I want to download a Win version to reinstall and a repair DVD/CD, bootable Win CD/DVD. Which one should I download? And how can I register the download Win for my Acer Aspire E 15 (Acer E5-573)?
Is this one correct: WindowsÂ*10 herunterladen

is the easiest way.
If your PC is not bootable, then use the same base language and 'bitness' (x86 or x64).
If Win10 was installed previously, and you wish to use the same edition, it should be activated automatically.

- or you may wish to consider an in-place upgrade repair install which keeps all programs and data if your PC can boot normally.
and here is link to in place repair / upgrade tutorial that was mentioned above.
Repair Install Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade
But note that to do that you need the base build iso for the build you currently have installed- not necessarily that for the latest build. As a new build is coming in another month, that again becomes a necessary check.
Sorry, I do not quite understan.
The base build without updateds? Like it was a few years agon? Can I use a USB-Stick, or is it too slow?But note that to do that you need the base build iso for the build you currently have installed
A check? What for?As a new build is coming in another month, that again becomes a necessary check.
Are you running Windows 10 Home Creators Update ?
Then that`s what you should download. You can use a dvd or a usb stick, whatever you want.
Download Windows 10
No, I don't, I would say, never heard of such. I use the version shown on my screenshot in the first post. Are there missing informations?Are you running Windows 10 Home Creators Update ?
Thank you for the link.
1. I'm talking about an in-place upgrade repair install
2. If the installed build is 1703, you need a 1703 iso to do that, not 1607, not later.
3. If you use a later build iso, you will follow the same procedure, but UPGRADE to the later build, not perform an in-place upgrade repair install
1. MS releases major builds up to twice a year.As a new build is coming in another month, that again becomes a necessary check.
2. Users do not get that at the same time on the same day- it's over 2-3 months.
3. Some users still run old builds e.g. 1511
4. After a new build is released, instructing someone to perform an in-place upgrade repair install carries an increased risk of confusion during those 2-3 months that they will download the new build, and attempt an in-place upgrade repair of the previous build with that, which would give them an upgrade.
Thus the new build release makes checking which build they actually need to download an even more necessary check so that the desired end is achieved.
Note: as most users are terrible at filling in specs, we have no idea which build they are using and very often have to ask.
