    So basically, I had my laptop for a while. It was running Windows 10 1809, but I had installed something and I was like "Let me just reset my laptop so it will be just like the way I got it". I went to the settings to reset and right when I was going to do the reset I was like "Let me do this later." A few days later, Windows automatically updated and I didn't want it to update. So, I reverted it back. But now, when I try to reset my PC it says there is no recovery environment, even though, there clearly was before. So I'd seen online that you can use the windows media creation tool, but I'm wondering if it will still have the OEM stuff like the apps, drivers, wallpaper and stuff or if it will just be a blank windows 10 setup.

  2. Formatting a Laptop that came pre installed with Windows 7

    I just recently found my old laptop that I want to wipe clean and re install Windows 7. I have the product key that was on the bottom of the laptop and need to know the next steps. Windows 7 was pre installed. I did not purchase it.

    Pre installed software vs Bloatware

    Anything on your laptop that is supplied with it should be downloadable from your manufacturer. Each manufacturer supplies a way of searching for and listing the drivers and utilities for each model, listed by OS supported, from the BIOS to multimedia utilities.

    I suggest you go and have a look.

    Also, these may be updated occasionally over time.
