    My computer won't download anything---should I reset my PC?


    For about 6 months, I haven't been able to download anything from my laptop computer I have a lenovo ideapad. I suspect it has something to do with the AVG security that I downloaded, because it was directly after that that everything stopped working. But, I'm no computer whiz, so I don't know. I have undownloaded everything having to do with AVG, and looked up and tried different things that should have allowed my computer to start downloading things from the internet, but nothing has worked. There's no viruses or malware on my computer, according to the Windows security, so at this point, I'm thinking that I should try to reset my PC. The only thing I'm scared about though, is that I still won't be able to download anything and then I won't have any of the apps itunes, netflix that I already have on my computer. I don't have wifi in my house, so I download music and movies and tv shows to watch when I'm at home. I don't want to be stuck with a completely useless computer, so I don't know what to do. Anyone know if resetting my PC deletes everything? Or if I can choose what to keep? Or anything else I can do?

    :)

    Volume Mute Light won´t change color


    Which steps did you perform? Was this from a clean boot?
    Open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste this command: shutdown /r /o /f /t 00
    It will boot to the recovery options or windows advanced troubleshooting menu.
    Click troubleshooting and click reset this computer. You will be saving files. Applications and programs will be removed. Windows will be reinstalled.
    Enter your windows logon password.
    You will see getting things ready with rotating dots.
    Click resetting this PC.
    It will then display the HP logo with resetting this PC with rotating dots and a percentage.
