Clean Boot the Computer

When you start Microsoft Windows normally, there are a number of programs that start automatically and run in the background. These programs, which may include antivirus and system utility programs, may sometimes interfere with the installation of a new program. When you perform a clean boot before you install a new program, you prevent these programs from starting automatically.
