  1. Windows 10 factory reset not finishing


    So I would usually do 1 to 2 factory resets a year, because I have a habit of filling my laptop up with music, programs and pictures, it would get really full and unorganized, im too lazy to organize it so I would do a factory reset. After the factory reset finished I would just reinstall all the important stuff (google chrome, fl studio, steam, ect) My laptop was at the point of needing a factory reset (being it really unorganized) so I decided to do a factory reset. I started the reset 2 days ago! And its still not finishing. A factory reset for me usually takes up to to 3 to 5 hours. Plz help.

    :)

  3. Windows 10 fails to update


    When you finish testing the Avast suggestion, make sure that you restart your machine.

    Then if the issue persists, please return to the trouble shooting list in post# 89

    I think there are three steps that remain; the WU troubleshooter, reset WU components, and manual WU reset.
