How to install Windows 10 Pro on computer with USB or DVD

 

To install Windows 10 Pro on a computer using an image, you will need to follow these steps:

1.    Obtain a Windows 10 Pro image file. This can be in the form of an ISO file or a WIM file. You can download the image file from the Microsoft website or obtain it from a third-party source.

 

2.    Create a bootable USB drive or DVD from the image file. You can use a program like Rufus or the built-in Windows tool to create a bootable USB drive or DVD.

 

3.    Connect the bootable USB drive or DVD to your computer.

 

4.    Restart your computer and enter the BIOS setup by pressing the key specified on your computer's startup screen. This is usually the Delete or F2 key, but it may vary depending on your computer's manufacturer.

 

5.    In the BIOS setup, change the boot order so that the bootable USB drive or DVD is the first boot device.

 

6.    Save the changes and exit the BIOS setup. Your computer will now boot from the bootable USB drive or DVD.

 

7.    Follow the on-screen instructions to install Windows 10 Pro. You may need to enter your product key during the installation process.

 

8.    Choose the partition or drive where you want to install Windows 10 Pro. If you are installing Windows 10 Pro on a new computer, you may need to create a new partition before proceeding.

 

9.    Wait for the installation to complete. This may take some time depending on the speed of your computer and the size of your hard drive.

 

10.                       Once the installation is complete, remove the bootable USB drive or DVD and restart your computer. Windows 10 Pro should now be installed on your computer.

 

It is important to note that the installation process may vary depending on your specific computer and its hardware. If you are unsure about any of the steps, it may be helpful to consult your computer's documentation or seek assistance from a professional.
