    Reset your PC using cloud download fails

    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    I understand that you are facing issues in resetting PC using cloud download option



    In order to get clarity and to assist you accordingly, please reply with the answers to the questions below:

    • What is the make and model number of your PC?
    • What happens when you select cloud download option for reset?
    • Do you get any error while trying to reset PC using cloud?
    • Do you use Wi-Fi or wired connection for internet?
    • Are you aware of any recent changes on the PC prior to this issue?
    Please provide more information regarding the issue

    Meanwhile, I would suggest you to perform a clean installation of Windows on PC, you can refer the section Clean install of Windows 10 using installation media from the article Reinstall Windows 10

    Note: Performing a clean installation will remove all the applications/programs. Hence before doing that, please backup your important data at least on an external hard disk

    If you are unsure about performing any steps, we do have videos for the same, you can watch the videos and perform the steps.

    Refer: How to Clean Install Windows 10 on a PC Step-by-Step Guide

    Windows 10 Reset / Cloud download

    @Bengie ,

    Did you want to perform a reset save file or reset remove files?

    If yes then if they fail you can perform nearly equivalent steps.


    Indicate clearly:
    a) what are the problems
    b) what you consider a fix

    For the nearly equivalent steps files can be saved and a fresh copy of Windows is installed.
    Drivers and applications need to be reinstalled.

    Indicate whether these are issues:
    Partition problems
    MBR vs GPT
    BIOS: Legacy vs UEFI

    Thank you for being a part of Windows 10.

    What do you mean by “it was not synced with cloud data. Every time it does not connected”?

    Try the following steps and check if it helps:

      Command Prompt (Admin).
    • In the Command Prompt, type the following command, and then press
      ENTER:
    netsh winsock reset

    If the issue persists then follow the below step.

    Step 2:

    I suggest you reset the Windows firewall and check.

    Follow the below steps:

    • Right click on the Start button and click
      Command Prompt (Admin).
    • In the Command Prompt, type the following command, and then press
      ENTER:
    netsh firewall reset

    If the issue persists then follow the below step.

    Step 3:

    I suggest you to disable proxy and check.

    Follow the below steps:

    • Press Windows + R keys from the keyboard.
    • Type inetcpl.cpl and hit Enter.
    • Click the Connections tab, and then click LAN settings.
    • Uncheck mark the Use a proxy server for your LAN check box.
