    No "Reset This PC" option


    Reset this PC option missing after replacing hard disk with a Samsung SSD and using Samsung Data Migration software to clone the existing drive.


    Analysis: using Control Panel -> Computer Management -> Disk Management

    On original hard disk the WinRE recovery partition was last partition. On new hard disk that partition had moved to first position.


    Solution:

    https://www.windowsphoneinfo.com/th...ows-recovery-environment-in-windows-10.76815/


    Display windows recovery environment information:

    reagentc /info


    I had to set path to WinRE partition using the command change harddisk# and partition# to suit your situation:

    reagentc /setreimage \\?\GLOBALROOT\device\harddisk0\partition1\Recovery\WindowsRE


    Then enable this automatically sets the identifier:

    reagentc /enable

    :)

  2. Unable to reset the pc

    Hello,

    If you are having that message while trying to reset your computer, We suggest you to create an installation media for Windows 10 using Media
    Creation Tool
    and perform a Reset.

    Once the installation media is created, follow the steps below:

    • Insert the installation media you created, and then restart your PC.
    • On the Install Windows screen, select Repair your computer.
    • On the Choose an option screen, select Troubleshoot. From there, you can use Safe Mode. Select
      Advanced Options >Reset This PC>Remove everything.
    • After the reset is complete, check for status.

    Give us an update on what happens.

    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".
