Do I need to re-install Windows again?​

Hi everyone, I am pretty new to using Windows 11 and am finding my feet, so please forgive me if my question sounds stupid!

I had a BSOD that happened nearly a month ago and was an unspecified error. I did a hardware scan which found no errors and I re-installed Windows and since then, touch wood, this issue hasn’t re-occurred. I also did a CHKDSK scan by following the Windows 11 support article and carrying out the /f and /r option. The scan didn’t find any errors and there’s no Found.000 folder anywhere, is that a bad thing?

I had an issue with Armoury Crate software that controls fan profiles of my ASUS laptop and the only way to install it again was to uninstall AC using ASUS official uninstaller which I duly did. Re-installed and everything worked perfectly. I followed the steps provided by ASUS, (https://rog.asus.com/articles/guides/how-to-cleanly-uninstall-and-reinstall-armoury-crate/) and the laptop configuration works like it used to, but I am worried that I shouldn’t have done this.

Did I do any of the above wrong? If everything works fine do I need to re-install Windows? Thanks so much in advance!

Good idea first time around to reinstall the OS after your BSOD.

Uninstalling and reinstalling software doesn't mean you have to reinstall the OS again.

If it reinstalled fine and you set it up how you want it and everything's working fine it just sounds like you've had a couple of issues that you've successfully resolved.

Just enjoy now

Thank you so much for your help.
