I've build a pc recently, and I've installed windows 10 n on it, but I was supposed to install regular windows 10. I need help as I don't know how to erase windows from my ssd or how to replace it.

Did you install pro and wanted home?

Do you have a win 10 installer? download the Windows 10 media creation tool and use it to make a win 10 installer on USB, if you don't

Only way to get back to Home from Pro is a fresh install - its not that hard really and includes the wiping of the hdd in process.

change boot order in BIOS so USB is first, hdd second
boot from installer & follow this guide, its really helpful and shows a step by step approach with screen shots: http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/1950-windows-10-clean-install.html

When you reach screen asking for licence, click "I don't have a key" and win 10 will continue to install and reactivate once finished
