I selected 64 bit win10home iso in media creation tool. It then downloaded the iso & burnt the dvd.

Iso was downloaded from microsoft.com using their media creation tool.

From an iso downloaded. Burnt to dvd via ms creation tool on clean pc. None of these inf & setup files are present on the dvd.

Pics uplooading now. I took a lot. I'll post a link as soon as they're all up.

How do I upload pics from my phone once I have them.

Give me a few minutes to reinstall & I'll take some pics of the screen as pc isn't plugged into router.

Thats what I did once I realised the win usb stick was compromised. Somehow, this prevents any removable media from modifying the ssd as the freshly burned win10 dvd, dl'd & burned using ms install disk creation tool, on another pc, reinstates all these hidden setup files.

Everything on all three drives has been deleted so I have no os to run samsung magician on & reinstall only reinstates the problem as all removable drives ie usb ports & dvd are compromised by the virus as soon as windows reboots. The files I looked at said something like 'expect sudden removal'...

I understand how to do a clean re-install & have deleted the partitions with diskpart as well as gparted from a live linux disc. System is i5 7500 with 16gb pc2400 ram, a samsung 960evo & a corsair force 500 ssd, both are 256 gb nvme drives which were os drives, win 10 & linux respectively, plus...

Purchased with new pc at reputable shop. That usb now corrupted. Dl'd iso of 64 bit win10 version 1709 a week ago & burned to single write dvd on another pc.

Perfectly legal. I purchased it not long ago , but recently had to dl an iso from microsoft because usb win10 I bought is now infected. Looking at the usb, I see that setup now references the hidden partition & reinstalls virus from ms usb. Nice huh.

After install. (5th or 6th time.) I checked inf folder after allowing myself permission & found driver.inf is modified to set up a raid partition on ssd, then lock it. Further to that, infs for usb, cd/dvd & even vga are modified. It creates a virtual drive in ram at boot that cooies contents...

Indeed. I did a diskpart clean all & reintalled win10. Scesetup.log shows users & sevices being installed by users that change permissions & remove rights to sorts of programs.

haven't got outlook or ever installed it
