If you'd like to reinstall Joli OS, the process depends on which method you used to install Joli OS the first time.

Note: It's important that you back up your files.

Joli OS Express

If you installed Joli OS on a Windows machine using the Windows Installer, all you have to do is uninstall Joli OS Express and install it again.

Joli OS native/partition install

If you installed Joli OS by using a Jolicloud USB key, you can overwrite the previous install with the new one.

1. Get your Jolicloud USB key
2. If Joli OS is your only operating system, just follow the usual process and select Erase and use the entire disk when at step 4. Otherwise you need to Specify partitions manually (advanced).
