I have an Asus K73SV running OEM Windows 7. It has a lot of programs and games installed. I want to perform a clean reinstall. Recently, I upgraded to Windows 10 and added an SSD to the existing hard drive. The software that came with the SSD only clones from my HDD (500GB) but not from the SSD (250GB). The HDD is more than half full. I heard there’s a "reinstall Windows" option in Windows 10. Is this available only for Windows 10 Pro? Usually, how would someone do this? I’ve already spent a lot of time trying to get Windows 10 to work on this machine, and I don’t want to switch back to Windows 7 just to upgrade again. Would there still be any waiting periods before downloading the new version? I’m not sure how to proceed in general or step by step because I feel a bit confused about this issue.

It might not always function properly. I generated a bootable USB with a media creation tool and tried to use it. I suggest making a bootable USB through that method and restarting to the USB afterward. Don't forget to save your important files.
