    How can I reset Windows?


    Hi everyone,I need some help to reset my PC.I tried to reset Windows, but a window opened with the message:"Could Not Find Recovery Environment". So I had tried to enable the Windows Recovery Environment, but this didn't work. It said:"Unable to update Boot Configuration Data". After this I had installed a Windows Recovery Environment on a USB stick and I tried to reset the PC again, but my PC doesn't find it. The reason why I want to reset the PC is, that my PC has a Virus on it, which I cannot remove. Can someone help me because I'm completely helpless.Thanks for everyone, who can help :Rev

    :)

    How can I reset Windows?

    How to reset whole netsh? (Windows 7)

    Was wondering has the commands changed somehow since on Windows XP and on Windows Vista 'NETSH INT RESET ALL' cleaned entire netsh up from top to bottom.

    Now on Windows 7 this same command says no go and only way I can see it is by building .cmd/.bat which does something like:

    Code: netsh winsock reset all netsh int 6to4 reset all netsh int ipv4 reset all netsh int ipv6 reset all netsh int httpstunnel reset all netsh int isatap reset all netsh int portproxy reset all netsh int tcp reset all netsh int teredo reset all[/quote] now the king of the hill of bugs is this doesn't actually do even it's job even after reboot. values setup to are not reset to defaults. (I know I could add more entire list of entries there is, but looking for clean delete/wipe settings & default everything not to dump entire list of resets.)

    So, anyone got a plan B?
