I wonder if I can use a windows recovery drive to install Windows 10 on any PC (not to recover or any of the other options offered by the recovery drive, but just to wipe and install Windows from scratch) or is a recovery drive intended only for the PC where you created it? I guess this drive only contains the drivers for that specific PC? or does it contain all the stuff found in a typical windows recovery media USB stick?
