2) Re: Installation of new version of Windows


3) Dear Jakob,


4) I am writing in reply to your email. If you want to install the latest version, you need to make sure that you have enough space on your hard drive. Please, pay attention that you must backup all your important files and documents before you begin. Other unimportant data you don’t have to back up.

Once you’ve done it, you can start the installation process. Firstly, insert the installation disk or USB drive into your computer and restart it. Your computer should boot from the installation media automatically. If it doesn’t boot, you will need to change the boot order in your BIOS settings.

Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation process. You’ll be prompted to enter your product key, select your language and time zone, and choose which version of Windows you want to install.

If there are any bugs with your applications after installing a new version, you can try running the built-in troubleshooter tool or updating your drivers. You may also check for updates to Windows itself by going to «Settings», then click on «Update & Security» and choose «Windows Update».

5) Let me know if you’re still experiencing problems.


6) Best regards,

7) Sam
