Windows 10: Factory Resetting Windows 10

Alright so i've had this laptop for a few years and have had adjustments to it. I bought it windows 8 and have constantly been updating it - to 8.1 and 10. I feel like I need to just reset it to factory settings. I am wondering if it would reset to windows 10 or back to 8. If it goes back to 8 is it possible for me to get the free upgrade again.

Secondly - Is there a way to partition my harddrive so that i can keep some important files on it that i need to transfer after the factory reset without anything on the partition being cleared. If so, could i please get a tutorial or method of doing so.

Thanks,
Brad

So recently my laptop has been running slow, so I decided to do a factory reset. But I am concerned that if I do a factory reset it will go back to windows 8.1 and I cant download windows 10. So I'm wondering if I factory reset my laptop will I get back
windows 10 or will have to stick with windows 8.1?

 

Factory resetting Windows 10

Just checking, do you want to go back to Windows 8.1 or do you want to stay on Windows 10 and just get a clean start? Settings, Update and Recovery, Recovery and Go Back to uninstall. Click Reset to stay on Windows 10. You can create recovery media from
the Windows 10 site.
