I'm getting a laptop that's been used for business so the Windows 7 is Enterprise and has a lot their corporate software. I'm just interested in the laptop for one of my kids to use for school. So my question is how could I buy a Windows 10 Home license and do a fresh install of it on this laptop when it doesn't have an optical drive just USB ports. Thanks!
