If this is the case, learn how to do this now if you are using Windows 7 or 10 and also if Windows 12 Preview is installed on your machine.

Process to install windows 12

  1. First of all, back up everything you want to save from the current state of your computer. That means saving (on the web, USB sticks, CDs, DVDs, external discs or anything) any and all files you don’t want to lose. Save everything before you start.
  • Now the next step is to do the normal Windows 12 upgrade. No matter what version you have (7 or 10), you need to upgrade to windows 12 so that after the clean install the system recognizes your security key. Is it possible to do this otherwise? Yes, however, Microsoft recommends upgrading before clean installation to avoid problems. Because Windows recognizes the security key present on the motherboard, this process helps ensure that this information is not lost.

  • After the previous two steps, which should take some time to complete, continue from here. Now, after your operating system is upgraded to Windows 12, log in to your Microsoft account to access the system itself. Then open the Start menu and click “Settings.” In the window that opens on your screen, click “Update and Security” and then “Activation.” Make a note of the exact name of your version of Windows because it is the one you should download again – after all the security key will only work with an exactly the same version.
  • The next step involves going to the Microsoft website and downloading the Windows 12 installer. Click here to go to the download page, scroll down until you find the options “Download the tool now (32-bit version)” and “Download the tool now (64-bit version)”. Choose the one for your machine and download it. This software will help you create physical media for a clean installation of Windows 12. Remember that this device, which can be a USB stick or a DVD, can also be used to recover Windows in case of a system problem.

  • Now choose the features of Windows that you will download. Set the language, version (which you discovered in step 03 of this guide) and also the architecture of your processor (if you are unsure, choose the “Both” option).
  • Choose the type of media to use: You can use an empty USB device with at least 3 GB of total storage space or burn an ISO format image file to a DVD. If you have chosen to burn the ISO file to a DVD, simply choose the location where it will be saved on your machine. If you chose the option that uses a USB stick, plug it into your PC and proceed to the next step.

Then repeat all the steps described above to install Windows ensuring that the operating system will access the motherboard information correctly, thus checking the security key.
