Reformat & Reinstall Win10 on Laptop.

[DrZoidberg]

My laptop is getting old and slow and have already run cclean app and virus software. I want to start clean. Is there a way to reformat it and reinstall operating system from somewhere already on the hard drive? It is too old to run Win11.

Just back up the data you'd like and throw chromeOS or Ubuntu or something on it.

My C2D laptop from 2006 chugs along pretty well with Lubuntu and a SSD.

Can you give us the specs of the laptop? You can always reset this pc but unless you have enough cpu, ram and a decent ssd its still gonna be slow.
