What are the system requirements for installing Windows 10?

Asked 6 months ago
The system requirements for installing Windows 10 are relatively moderate. Your device needs to have a processor with at least 1 GHz clock speed or faster, and a minimum of 2 GB RAM for the 64-bit system or 1 GB for the 32-bit system. It requires 16 GB of available hard disk space for the 32-bit system, or 20 GB for the 64-bit system. Your screen should have a minimum resolution of 800 x 600 pixels, and a DirectX 9 or later graphics card is necessary. To use specific features such as touch, you'll need a compatible device. Internet connectivity is also required for updates and to download and activate Windows 10. These requirements are subject to change, so it's advisable to visit the official Microsoft website for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
