  1. I am trying to factory reset my pc


    I am trying to factory reset my pc, I tried doing it through my settings and continuously get a problem resetting your pc promt aswell as no changes were made. I tried doing chkdsk and dism commands as admin and that didn’t work either, I also tried doing the startup reset and was given the same prompt, if anyone could help me out that would be greatly appreciated. I’m on windows 10.

    :)

    How to factory reset Cisco 1700 Router

    Hopefully I can help you here....its a very common thing to happen.


    First, I take it you dont know the passwords for console access or telnet/ssh?

    I will assume that these devices belong to you.

    step 1. Plug a cisco console cable into a serial port on your pc
    step 2. Plug other end into Cisco console port
    step 3. Using hyperterm or putty or similar connect to the serial port
    step 4. boot router, and make sure you clearly can see the output (this confirms you have good serial comms)
    step 5. if this fails, adjust the comm port settings (9600, 8,1,n are the default)
    step 6. now you have to do the only hard part...send the break command:

    Break command list: Break Commands

    Go down the list and match your OS and SW and try the sequence suggested.

    If this fails several times do what I do: Install putty (free) and then to send a break so you can get into rommom just hit "ctrl-a b".

    Trying to Factory Reset Windows 10 w/o Administrator/BitLocker/USB

    Hello,

    I have been trying to reset my Surface Go. I do not have access to the Administrator account, hence why I am trying to factory reset my PC. I do not have a USB available, nor do I have a USB I can use to create a bootable media to reinstall Windows 10. I have tried resetting Windows 10 from the Troubleshoot Menu (Holding Shift while Restarting), but when I complete all the steps, my PC does not factory reset.

    My Version number is 20H2 (OS Build 19042.1052)

    Thanks!
