Updating all Windows components

If you are looking for the easiest way, you should opt for a fresh installation. But remember that you will lose all your personal data on the operating system drive if you don’t back up your data first. The big advantage of this method, however, is that you do not need to use compatible installation media.

However, if you choose the targeted approach, you will need compatible installation media to run the repair installation in place.

Unlike a clean installation, this process takes much longer, but its main advantage is that you can update any potentially corrupted components without losing data from your applications, games, documents, and personal media currently stored on your operating system disk.
