1. Execute virus and malware to scan your computer
and reinstall Windows. Although the reinstallation process will overwrite any infected system files, you can infect files on other
computers

When the scan is complete, turn off your anti-virus software, then start reinstalling and turn it off until the process is complete. 2. By copying the data to a flash drive, the external hard drive or internal hard drive is separated from your Windows partition partition, giving you a backup copy of your documents, pictures and other important data. If these options are not available, use removable media, such as a writable DVD disc, to back up your files. For other software, you will rediscover your Windows product key, the product key, which should contain the installation CD or the Windows key if it comes to connect to Windows installed on your computer. Write down the details, such as your username, computer name, and workgroup name, to make sure they are entered correctly after reinstalling. 3. Determine how you want to reinstall Windows.

Full format ensures that all previous data is completely deleted, but it takes longer than a less secure fast format. 4. Uninstall any service pack updates that you have previously installed if you are not planning to format the Windows partition. This is done by clicking on the "View installed updates" link in the "Uninstall a program" window, selecting the service pack update you wish to remove, and clicking the "Uninstall" button. Windows may not work correctly before restarting the installation process because the software will see during the reinstallation process, unauthorized downgrades will not be removed if the service pack is updated.

If you want to perform an "in-place upgrade", reinstall, run the "setup.exe" file from the CD, while the Windows is running. If you plan to do a full reinstallation, restart your computer and when prompted, press any key to boot from the CD in the DVD drive.
