When you reinstall Windows on your computer it gives you an instant reset button.
It brings back your computer back to the way it was when you first bought it. It means, you get a new computer again.
So, when should you reinstall Windows?:
- When virus or spyware infected your registry beyond repair.
- Windows startup files are corrupted.
- Computer is running slowly.
Before you reinstall Windows, make sure that you back up your important files first, because reinstalling Windows will wipe out your whole hard drive meaning your files and programs will also be deleted. That removal process is what makes it such a good thing to do. It gives you a clean slate by removing any virus, spyware, or corruption in Windows. In turn, you get a practically brand new computer minus the current shelf life of your PC. Even if your computer is running sluggish, it is a good rule of thumb to reinstall Windows every 2-3 years to give it the pep it needs.
