Thanks, that was what I was hoping.

Is there any negative if I decide to leave my boot order so USB disk is first? Except for the obvious, that if a bootable device is installed it will boot, but for normal everyday use, I'd like to...

So use Macrium Reflect and make an image of the EFI system partition BEFORE I install Ubuntu? Then, if I choose, I can delete the volume containing Linux, restore the image to the EFI partition and...

Hi,

I am running Widows 10 on a UEFI/EFI/GPT system. I'd like to try and install a Linux OS on another partition. Installing is not a problem my question relates to if I decide to remove Ubuntu,...

Thank you and oh yes, I'll back-up everything before this, I've learned the hard way.

Hi:

I'd like to install Windows 10 fresh again but I do not want to remove Partition 5. I'm assuming in setup/custom I can remove the first 4 partitions, install in the unallocated space and...

This is so frustrating and is at a point where I need to go back to Windows 8. Any answers please?

Thanks,
Ed

Still having this issue and can still not find an answer. Any ideas?

Thanks,

My laptop, running Windows Ten from a clean install, has issues with the sleep function. About once a day, when I either put the computer to sleep or when it does it on its own, the screen will go...

Loving it so far. Things were a bit buggy after the upgrade on an Acer bloated Win 8.1 laptop. Did a clean install and she's running silky smooth. Might be silly but I find it all aesthetically...

Hi,

I'm confused. After my Windows 10 upgrade was finished I created a "Recovery drive" on a 32 GB flash drive and it filled the drive to 26.8 GB. I just finished a clean install on my hard disk...

Yeah, I not only corrected the time zone, I also reset thetime thru the Internet.

I've been considering shrinking my one disk (disk 0) to create another volume, a data partition, but I'm still not clear what happens in the event that I want to refresh, reset or clean install...

Thanks, that is clearly what I wanted to know. I'll keep both.

Hi,

Just curious. I created a recovery disk on a 32 GB flash drive that included the system files and has 17.2 GB of used space. What functions can I perform with this disk? E. G., Clean install?...

Wow! Me too. Whenever I have tried to download apps from the Store for days, it would just close itself. My time zone was set wrong, I didn't even notice. Changed the time zone and now Windows Store...

My numbers are different, but all seems to be running just fine. This is my disk now. (8/9/2015), a clean install from media.

Thanks everyone, I'll keep you posted.

This is my disk now. Okay?

Excellent, thank you. I prefer and my BIOS is set for GPT (UEFI) style boot.

When you say "100MB System Partition" this would be what is listed as "Healthy (EFI System Partition)" in my Disk...

Thanks. That part was really confusing me. I don't want to save the factory image, old OS and bloatware.

Appreciate it NavyLCDR,
Ed

I have upgraded my Windows 8.1 system to Windows 10 through the Windows update app and have created an installation media USB stick. I want to clean install, something I am very familiar with, but...
