Ever since I built my first PC in 2018, I've been doing a yearly install of windows 10 thinking it's the best way to keep my PC performing at its best and sometimes out of paranoia. I hear some other people do the same in a similar time, sometimes even once every 6 or 3 months.
Watched a youtube short a while ago where the poster stated they did the same, while the comment section talked down on them saying they could just get the same results using "sfc /scannow" in CMD instead of having to go through all the trouble of reinstalling windows as well as saying to "get better at maintaining your system" without going into details other than the obvious of not downloading suspicious stuff.
Is there really a better method to keeping your PC as good as it was on a fresh install than just reinstalling windows?
