I have a notebook with Windows 8.1. I have formatted a partition and I am trying to install Windows 10 by booting from a DVD with Windows 10 ISO image. Before I had tried to install windows 10 from a usb. Unfortunately an error appears after formatting (error code: 0x0000098, file:/windows/System32/drivers/UsbHub3.sys) and does not allow me to access any recovery tool to configure properly.
An image from 'How to fix this error?'. Windows recovery screen shows missing or corrupted UsbHub3.sys driver error 0xc0000098.

This error indicates that some OS file is corrupt, so it would be advisable to download the Windows 10 ISO and perform the manual repair.

Steps to perform Automatic Repair:

1- Insert the installation DVD or USB and boot Windows 10 from it.
2- In the 'Windows setup' page select the language to install ',' Time and currency format 'and the' keyboard or input method 'and click on' next '.
3- Click on 'Repair your computer' and select 'Troubleshoot'.
4- Click on 'Advanced options' and select 'Automatic Repair' and select the operating system.
