Windows 10: Recovery - Reset this PC

Hi guys,

Is there any way to automate the setup after resetting the PC with the option "Remove everything". I´m looking for something like installing a remote control tool or execute some scripts.

Thank you.

Reset this PC function In Recovery

Hi Wayne,

Since your machine was clean installed with 1703 previously without any issues, Windows.old folder will not be available since you successfully performed a clean install.

Every time you upgrade your PC from an older version of Windows to Windows 10 without first formatting the hard drive, or when you install a new Windows Insider Preview test build, the install wizard will save a copy of the previous version inside of the "Windows.old"
folder on your computer. If everything is working as expected after upgrading to Windows 10, you probably don't need these files, as they consume your hard drive space.

The System Reserve Partition (SRP) is a small partition on your hard drive that stores
boot information for Windows. This contains the Windows boot manager and boot configuration data.
Reset your PC is a recovery method on Windows 10 usually uses a bootable media as backup. We suggest that you check these articles for more information about Reset your PC:
