Recover apps on Windows 10 reset

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are trying to recover the apps after performing a Windows 10 reset. The Windows reset will remove all the applications that was installed on your system and it can only be recovered if a system image backup
was created prior to the reset. However, if the reset was performed by selecting the option to ‘Keep my files’, then this would keep your personal files intact.



I would suggest you to refer the article on
Recovery options in Windows 10, kindly refer the section ‘Reset your PC’ for more information on the options provided to you during the Windows reset.




Hope it helps,
