    I was wondering how long it would take someone to figure that out....
    Windows Installations Boot into Windows Pre-Installation Environment..
    You basically boot WinPE for a clean install..

    Many Points for that Navy...

    Cool little trick with Kyhi's recovery drive: take a standard Windows 10 install USB flash drive, copy the boot.wim file from \sources from Kyhi's recovery drive to the \sources on the Windows 10 install USB flash drive (overwrite the old file). Now your Windows 10 install USB flash drive will boot into Kyhi's recovery drive giving you all those utilities. If you want to install Windows 10, run setup.exe from the USB flash drive from file explorer. Bonus! Two drives in one!

    Am I missing something here, but how would you do a clean install if the boot.wim file has been changed, or is it that you run setup.exe when in the windows pe environment, it clean installs rather than upgrading?

    Hello Kyhi,

    the download links in the first post (for Win10) does not work for me. Onedrive says the files are missing.
    Also, will I be able to fix Win10 0xc000021a error (wont boot)?

    Thanks, regards
