Unfortunately Windows 10 does not come exactly clean of software, since we even find shortcuts to the Candy Crush saga, however, something is something, and all these Tiles and applications can be deleted later. This is something that I personally recommend to anyone who buys a new computer, the first thing I usually do when a new device arrives in my hands is to perform this "clean installation" to save future nightmares with bloatware.

So, eYou choose the update mode by clicking the update icon or downloading this installer that Microsoft released. for the furthest behind thanks to this LINK that we have left. Once the Windows 10 download is finished and the installation has begun, the edition of Windows 10 that we install will be permanently associated with our Windows 7 or Windows 8 license that we had.

Microsoft realized that it had to take a qualitative step in Windows 10 and it did. It has made the task of formatting the device much easier, since now it will not be necessary to go to repair shops if we lack knowledge, and that is in the configuration chapter.

1. Let's go to Settings
2. Let's go to Update and Security
3. In Activation we make sure that it is activated

If it is, We will be able to know not only if the copy is activated, but we will also know what type of Windows 10 we have, already be Home o Pro. Si no está activado o aparece el mensaje «Los servidores del sistema de activación de Microsoft están saturados», tendremos que esperar un par de horas con el sistema conectado a internet, y se activará solo.

Now we will perform the following steps to reinstall Windows 10 cleanly and remove all bloatware and adware:
