    resetting my laptop, will i lose windows?


    so i'm resetting my laptop, i have Windows 10 pro, if i reset will i lose it? i got windows by purchasing a key from Microsoft. could i just boot from the .iso on SD then reenter that key, or will i need to purchase a new key?

    Multiple Issues After Resetting Laptop


    Hi,

    I recently reset my laptop and since then I've been experiencing a whole host of issues:

    • Windows search bar doesn't work
    • Shop app won't open
    • Won't allow me to change location settings
    • Clock/calendar on my toolbar is unresponsive when I click on it

    Any ideas what the problem might be, please? Advice / suggestions are very much appreciated!

    Cheers,
