How to delete everything but keep OS

The CDKEY can be retrieved with the MAGIC JELLYBEAN FINDER (see google.)

Remember that what I'm going to share is good enough for most but those that are paranoid just won't be enough.

The simplest method is to create TWO (this is important to have two) LOCAL LOGIN ADMIN accounts. When you are ready to dust off your old account and its files you can log into one of these and then remove your old account. When you do that Windows will ask if you want to keep the files, you answer you want to dump those files and you have cleaned out most of your junk.

If you want to uninstall apps, then do that.

A final step would be to use CCLEANER (see google) to wipe empty space which is noted at https://www.ccleaner.com/docs/ccleaner/using-ccleaner/wiping-free-disk-space

Yes, there may be a few remnants but it's 99% clean and good to go.

If you have w10 this may work.

Windows 10 has a built-in method for wiping your PC and restoring it to an ‘as new’ state. You can choose to preserve just your personal files or to erase everything, depending on what you need.

Go to Start > Settings > Update & security > Recovery, click Get started and select the appropriate option. Then follow the on-screen instructions to restore Windows 10 to a factory-fresh state.
