    What if I choose Remove files and clean the drive option?


    I am currently using Redstone 5 and am going to reset my PC without losing my data on D drive. Unlike the previous version, Redstone 5 won't show the option if I want to wipe all drive or only Windows drive. So, what if I choose that option? Will I lose my data on D drive?

    :)

  2. remove files and clean the drive

    Hi,

    There are many ways to recover your missing files. To provide you the best option, we'd like to ask a few questions:

    • What procedures are you referring to when you clean your drive? Did you perform a clean install?
    • Are your files synced to OneDrive?
    • Have you set up a drive for File History?

    If your files are synced to OneDrive, we suggest you go to
    OneDrive Online
    and download the missing files from it.

    You can also restore files or folders using File History if you have set it up before. You can refer to this

    article
    for more information about this.

    We look forward to your response.

    Thank you.
