Clean install (not upgrade) from Windows 10 to Windows 11

[info999]

Hello, how do I clean install (not upgrade) from Windows 10 to Windows 11 ? But keep existing non-system files (I will move them over to a folder may be c:\backup)

Is it possible ?

Thanks

For a clean install, you would save all your files you don't want to lose to an external drive and then proceed with the clean install. You can then drag them back on after completing install if desired. Is that what you mean?

I strongly recommend Ghost Spectre Windows 11 - I've been using it for 2 years now, solid as a rock and silky smooth running.

move your non-system files to another partition drive( like d:\backup) (if you don't have 2 partition, create partition, then move your files there)

 

During Windows installation, select custom install and format your old windows 10 drive and install it there
