I've got a Toshiba Satellite laptop running Windows 7 I need to wipe so my mother can use it, and I don't know the first thing about reformatting this piece of shit. I've been reading shit up and I need a Windows 7 installation/repair(?) disc.
Can any anon help me out I'm completely retarded.

When it's booting up there's almost always a button (f11, f2, etc) that allows you to go into options. Some computers allow you to do a factory reset this way.

Do I need Windows 7 ISO files or my product key if I were to do this? I've got a duplicate key I used awhile back that doesn't seem to work anymore, and my key on the bottom is illegible.
getintopc.com to get the iso, use daz loader to activate

- Download the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool*
- Use it to create a bootable Windows 10 installer USB
- Boot your existing Windows 7, and use the USB to upgrade it to Windows 10
- [This registers your motherboard as having a valid Windows 10 license on the activation server]
- Boot off the USB, wipe the hard disk and do a clean Windows 10 install
- You don't need to do anything to activate it, because you have a valid license and it activates itself.
