Does the laptop keep Windows 10 when I reset it?

When I bought the laptop, I downloaded W10 myself. If I reset my laptop now, will it lose W10 or will it still stay up?

mi

Yes, the system is reset. The operating system is retained

Cr

OK thanks

Ra

What now?

It depends on whether you use the Windows reset function or delete the hard drive.

Windows doesn't stay with the latter.

Windows 10 was deleted when I reset my laptop

Then had Windows 8.1 again

Ra

Did you really just reset?

Cr

Yes

That's not true. Only personal data and settings are lost. And programs like Word, Excel or driver software z. B. Printer must be reinstalled

Then you did not delete 8.1 after the repair of 10. Then you didn't upgrade and just installed 10 and forgot to uninstall 8.1.

If you reset "Windows 10": Yes.
If there's any mechanism that resets the "laptop" (whatever that means!): Unsure.

A few warm words on the subject:

mchawks text module 15: A new installation or "resetting the system" are not a reset or restart.
This does not eliminate errors - especially in situations in which laypersons tend to use this function: in the event of hardware errors.

This only destroys system logs that could have been analyzed for errors - especially in the case of hardware errors.

The system is also not accelerated or "detoxified". This is just an esoteric effect that is eliminated when you start to reinstall your programs. A lot of work - no effect.

A little research on this platform is also enough to see that the "reset" causes so many problems and also completely excludes users from their system that one should avoid this function better than the devil the holy water.

It is not a DoItYourself solution for laypeople, at best it is the last resort when professionals can't think of anything else. Even then, professionals would reinstall Windows from an installation disc!

By the way, professionals create and use regular backups. You don't need something like "reset".

By the way, "Reset" does not necessarily delete your personal data in such a way that it can't be (partially) restored by professionals. So this function is of little use if the computer is resold.

Flake addiction best described that. The reset in the sense of factory settings refers to the system that was installed after production.

If Win 10 was set up as an update or as a full installation, this does not change this fallback option.

Win 10 recovery point set or
Backup created.
