    Reformat Surface Book to factory settings


    Hi, my surface is not working that well and the camera stopped working. I have tried several ways to get it sorted - even did a restore but still no camera.



    My next step is to do a full reformat to factory settings. My question is - will this install Windows 10 again or do I need to back up my operating system?


    Thank you,


    Deborah

    :)
