If you're selling or recycling your computer, you must choose this option. The latter option is more secure, as it reduces the chances of someone recovering the data from your computer. You'll have the option to simply remove everything using the "Just remove my files" option, or to have Windows also wipe the drive using the "Remove files and clean drive." If you chose to remove everything, Windows will prompt you one more time. Once you’ve selected the option you want, Windows will prepare the reset. (Note: Make sure your computer is charging, as Windows 10 may not start a reset if the device isn't plugged in.) Underneath it, you'll see a button that says "Get started."Ĭlick on "Get started," and a new window will pop up prompting you to "Keep my files" or "Remove everything." For a proper factory reset, opt to "Remove everything." If you just want to refresh your machine and keep your files, choose “Keep my files.” From the Recovery tool, simply find the section with the heading "Reset this PC," which wouldn’t be hard as it will be the very first one.
