I bought a Windows 8.1 Lenovo laptop with a ton of bloatware on it. I want to do the upgrade to Windows 10 but I want it to be as if it was a fresh install with no programs on it. How do I go about doing this? Thanks.
 
I've read from several sources that you can create a separate partition and do a clean install in it without having to first do the upgrade. It wasn't that way initially, but MS fixed that with the updates they came out with last November.

Good luck.
