Windows 10: system reset did not complete correctly.... it reset windows to older version

Last week I did a system reset from Settings. The reset stopped at 88% but the sign-in page appeared, after waiting 30 minutes I signed in. Nothing seems to be working correctly and many apps and featuresunwanted were installed. Most important lost apps/services were Windows 10 Community Forums and Support.Microsoft.com. I am unable to open these and many other accounts and apps. These is an HP PC and I am even unable to contact HP online to get help. Prior to the Reset I had received "how to" instructions from Support.Microsoft.com to do a Clean Install with a Microsoft Tool but now I am unable to locate that source. It really seems that the Reset data/apps/features, etc. added to this Pc were very old. All Microsoft support answers I am able to find online are from years ago. Please advise any solutions possible for me to fix or how to get instructions to use the Media Create Tool in Microsoft. I am a senior citizen who cannot afford to to pay a technician.


This is: HP desktop - Windows 10-v. 2004 - os 19041.685 - Edge Chrome v. 88.O.705.56

At least that's what it was before Reset...the Edge browser after Reset began with 44.......?


If I can get Windows up and running properly again I vow I'll never again touch anything on it unless I am absolutely certain I know I can do it.

I'm sure previous agents who had patience enough to help are happy to read that!

How to reset whole netsh? (Windows 7)

Was wondering has the commands changed somehow since on Windows XP and on Windows Vista 'NETSH INT RESET ALL' cleaned entire netsh up from top to bottom.

Now on Windows 7 this same command says no go and only way I can see it is by building .cmd/.bat which does something like:

Code: netsh winsock reset all netsh int 6to4 reset all netsh int ipv4 reset all netsh int ipv6 reset all netsh int httpstunnel reset all netsh int isatap reset all netsh int portproxy reset all netsh int tcp reset all netsh int teredo reset all[/quote] now the king of the hill of bugs is this doesn't actually do even it's job even after reboot. values setup to are not reset to defaults. (I know I could add more entire list of entries there is, but looking for clean delete/wipe settings & default everything not to dump entire list of resets.)

So, anyone got a plan B?

 

Having random resets on Windows 10

I would suggest trying another PSU.
It appears to me it cuts out under load.
Use CPUID HWMonitor to check voltages while running at idle, then load.
Not resetting while in BIOS, does not mean Hardware isn't to blame, it only shows basic drivers and hardware are functioning correctly.
