Windows 10: Microsoft problems.

Microsoft used to be a great company, owned by a guy that I actually loved and liked! But after he retired a few years ago, I started noticing annoying bugs and glitches that are making my life a living hell. For example, I wanna add my phone number into my Microsoft account as an alias for something important and personal, whoever I keep getting the damned "try another verification method" every singular time, even if I wait for 2 days or longer. Which caused me to miss "important" matters and things. Another thing is the support agents don't really support you, all they do is copy and paste

Windows 10 1709 System Restore problems...

That seems to be an attempt at Option 2 in the tutorial, which requires you to
a. Boot to a command prompt (Did you?)
b. You then seem to be mixing steps 3,4 and 5, thus your command is incorrect.

I suggest Option 1 is easier.

If you still have problems, please repost listing each specific step and saying which option from the tutorial you are using. Thanks.
