  1. Do I need to reinstall windows 10 after restore factory setting?


    Windows 10 is pre-installed in my laptop. I know the product key and product id of windows. Due to virus I want to restore factory setting. After restore factory setting, do I need to buy windows 10 again or do I need to create windows 10 image? After restore factory setting, will Windows 10 automatically install again in my laptop?

    :)

    Reinstalling Windows 10 to sell a PC - is the 'Remove everything' option enough?

    Restore factory settings do list Removes your personal files, apps and settings, and reinstalls the version of Windows that came on this PC.

    So if this isn't true well than just erase the drive and install a clean Windows 10 with all the drivers u need but why should it be true

    System restore is handy when it works like it did for me 2 days ago saving the need to reinstall all of my software as well as windows, id suggest using norton Ghost 12 for an excellent system restore feature.
