Hello,

I just got a computer with Kubuntu installed. I would like to uninstall it to reinstall Windows 11 Home, the PC's native OS (I have access to the email where the license is registered). I have no idea how to do it. Could someone help me?

Thanks in advance! :)

Hello,

You can use the link to download the Windows ISO to create a USB Drive (minimum 8GB) to reinstall Windows.

https://www.microsoft.com/fr-fr/software-download/windows11

When you have the Windows ISO file, you can create your USB drive with Rufus for Windows in GPT mode.

https://rufus.ie/en/

Or with Ventoy for Linux, also in GPT mode, and place the ISO on the drive afterwards.

Boot from the USB drive using the PC's Boot Menu key.

You can search on Google "[Brand Model] Boot Menu Key."

Choose "Custom installation" (Not upgrade).

Delete all system partitions and create a new one (this will delete the data).

You won't need a license or email address, the license is recognized in the BIOS.
