dual boot windows 10

[Gaurank]

hello. I want to ask that is it possible to dual boot windows 10 with ssd and a ssd i.e. one windows 10 on hdd and the other windows 10 on ssd, and if possible then how to do it? Thanks in advance.

If you have two licences you could do it but I am not sure how boot would work. Why do you want 2x win 10 on same PC?

what type of bios have you got? Where both clean installs of win 10? The boot method would decide how easy it is. UEFI boot method might see both and offer a choice at start up everytime you boot, Legacy would just see whatever is first and wouldn't be usable if you have clean installed win 10 at any stage

you could use the msconfig boot tab to switch which to boot off.

I can't find any examples of it so I can't link them.

I've done it on two test desktops with the Insider version of Windows 10. When you boot, you get a menu listing both systems that you can choose from. The one most recently installed becomes the default, but you can go to the System applet of the Control Panel and change that if you wish.
Just be aware that as Colif points out, to be legal you'd need two licenses. That is a different question from "will it work" which I don't know the answer for if you're not using the insider version.

Good luck.

On my computer it worked very well, but you definitely need two separate Windows licenses. But it is easy to set up even with UEFI and two separate SSDs.

Only one licence is necessary if dual booting with W7, see this thread 'Installing Windows 10 to dual boot with WIndows 7'.
