  1. Asked for account code after factory reset


    I performed a factory reset on a laptop with preinstalled Windows 10 and then proceeded to sell it. However, when the person I sold it to tried to use it, he was given a username "defaultuser01" for which he was requested a code in the Command prompt. I am not aware of any code we could use, what can be done in this situation? I should also mention that the past username was not defaultuser01. Should he be able to create another account or how could we get this code?

    :)

    Factory reset "Error" message

    Hi Jaxyn,

    It seems that the issue that you initially encountered also interferes with the factory reset. In order for us to provide the appropriate solution, we'd like to ask for additional information. Please answer the following:

    • Aside from failing at 30%-32%, are you also getting an error message or code?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
    • What build and version of Windows 10 are you using?
    We hope to hear from you soon.
