  1. Can't factory reset windows 10


    So my laptop refuses to boot up properly. But when i go into troubleshoot and click system restore. It says i cant restore the system. the exact message is: to use system restore, you must specify which windows installation to restore. Restart this computer, select and operating system and then select system restore. Ive restarted many times and it will not give me such an option. What do i do?

    :)

    Can't factory reset windows 10

    Ive factory reset my computer but I can't use the mouse or the keyboard to select laugage

    Hi,

    A device like your keyboard and mouse is not detected during factory reset.
    To help us determine the appropriate troubleshooting steps
    that can resolve your concern, we would like to ask the following questions:

    • Are you performing a factory reset on a laptop or a desktop?
    • Is this the first time you perform a factory reset on your device?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far to resolve your concern?

    In the meantime, if you're working on a desktop, we suggest that you try to use a PS2 keyboard just to bypass the installation process. Once Windows is up and running, you may now plug your mouse and keyboard to initialize Windows to detect these devices.

    We look forward to your response.
