Select the system partition.

• in the next window click the button “Use standard settings”, so as not to delve into the subtleties, because, as a whole, everything will be set up optimally;
• Next OS will check for the latest updates and install them automatically (this will be done if there is access to the Internet);
• At the next stage, you will be prompted to enter the Microsoft account or go through the registration process, but in most cases, users do not do this and create a local account by clicking on the “Skip this step” link (at least this will avoid entering the password every time the computer will be restarted);
• in a new window enter the user name, as well as the password for it;
• Wait until all the parameters have been applied, then the desktop appears on the screen.
