Select your USB in Boot Menu and press Enter key.

Windows Installation Begins.

Click on “Install now”.

Please note that I am using 64bit Windows 10 professional.
If you have a Windows DVD or flash drive which is asking you
to choose from 64bit or 86bit(32 bit) check which bit is supported
by your laptop model. Most of them uses 64 bit but still its better
to confirm.
- Choose Custom: Install Windows only (advanced).

Select your partition or drive to install Windows 10. In my case I have Unallocated Space of 298.1 GB. If you want single primary partition in your Windows you can simply select Drive(my case drive:0) and click on “Next”, But If you want more than one partition in Windows click on “New”.

- Choose your Primary Partition size.
- I want my Primary partition around 100 GB.
- So 100 GB multiply by 1024 equals 102,400 MB.

- Change Size to “102,400 MB” and Click on “Apply”.

A pop up menu will appear click on “Ok”. Windows Setup will automatically create additional partitions for system files e.g. Recovery partition, System Partition, MSR Partition.

- See the picture below we still have 198.1 GB of Unallocated Space, we can do same process to make another partition, or we can choose drive letter for Unallocated partition in Windows Manage later when Windows installation is completed.
- Now to Begin with Windows 10 installation Select “Primary” partition from the list of partitions.
- Click on “Next”.

You can add a second keyboard layout if you want to, I don’t need another keyboard layout, so I will click on “Skip”.

Type your User Name in blank field and click on “Next”.

Type your new password for your account. If you don’t want any password on your login account then leave the field empty and click on “Next”.

If you want that Windows keep your history and send your
activity history to Microsoft for better user experience you
can go for “Yes” as I don’t want that, so I will choose “No”.

Again if you like to get help from your digital assistant called “Cortana” you can click on “Accept”. Cortana will also collect your user information including your location history, contacts, voice, speech input, typing history, search history, communication history, and much more. I don’t want to use any help from Conrtana, so I will “Decline” this service.

Next is to choose privacy settings for your device and click on “Accept”.

Wait for Windows 10 to set up all settings for you. It might take a while but don’t rush we are almost finish.
