Converting MacBook Pro to windows os

Hi,

I have a MacBook Pro 2012 (not retina) i5, I recently loaded Chrome OS Flex onto it for family but now need a Windows OS. Can I somehow now load Windows, what would be the best process, is it practical/ worth it?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much, I also managed to get Mac OS back on by holding cmd + option +R, so process started, thanks again.

It is definitely doable to get Windows 10 running on your Macbook! I've found this video that should guide you through the process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSIYDlTx...

I would also take note that the i5 models have 4GB of RAM included, which while it will still be able to run Windows 10, it will not be pleasant. So I would advise doing a RAM upgrade to if you plan to do so, a tutorial on how to do such an upgrade can be found here: MacBook Pro 13" Unibody Mid 2012 RAM Replacement and a good resource that should give you all the resources to do an upgrade to 16GB of RAM can be found here: MacBook Pro 13" Unibody (Mid 2012) Memory Maxxer RAM Upgrade Kit
