    Resetting Windows 10


    How long does it take to factory reset windows 10? I chose the second option; reset and delete all files. But it is taking too long, about 14 hours now since i reset my laptop and i am still here. Though it is processing but it is quite long to progress. Approximately 2 hours for every 1%. I have 1TG Hard Drive. Is it alright to restart my laptop? Or i should just wait? Thank you!Resetting Windows 10 [​IMG]

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Resetting Windows 10

    Windows 10 fails to update


    When you finish testing the Avast suggestion, make sure that you restart your machine.

    Then if the issue persists, please return to the trouble shooting list in post# 89

    I think there are three steps that remain; the WU troubleshooter, reset WU components, and manual WU reset.
