P.S. It takes about 30 mins to complete the install.
From my own experience, I've gone through this process a couple of times. The first time I did it, I was nervous about losing my data, but I made sure to back everything up beforehand. After a clean install, it kind of felt like getting a new laptop! Everything was fresh, and Windows 10 just felt more familiar and comfortable.
I know the thought of a clean install can be daunting, but if you follow the steps closely and take the time to back up your data, you're in for a much better experience with Windows 10. Plus, it offers a lot of reliability and ease of use that many of us appreciate!
So yeah, I'd definitely say your plan is on point! Just prepare a bit before you dive in, and you should be good to go.
