Hi guys,
Brian made the video "How to optimise and setup windows 10"
I am just about to perform a clean install of windows 10.
Should I optimise after I install drivers, updates, applications or before I install apps or after the clean installation is finished
When should I optimise it?

I would say after drivers, updates, applications are installed

I would set the system up and run for awhile deciding at that point if I thought the system even needed to be optimized. You may find Windows ten is fine for You. And leave well enough alone.

It is not really required unless there is an apparent performance slowdown because of the fragmentation of files on a hard drive
Please be advised that the fragmentation of files will not affect the performance in a solid state drive

I would optimise but image the system first using Clonezilla or Macrium reflect
I personally use Clonezilla but its a bit hard to use at first, but once you learn its cake walk not taking away anything from Macrium reflect also works great

You don't need to optimize Windows 10 that much.
- Install Windows 10
- Install Drivers
- Update Windows 10
- Install applications you want
- Change your settings you want
- Make a system image
