    What is the way to restore my Windows 10 system to its default settings and undo any...


    In the past, I mistakenly believed that applying various tweaks to my computer would improve its performance. However, my PC remained slow and unresponsive. Even after resetting my PC, the issue remains. I'm now looking for a solution to restore my computer’s performance and speed. Unfortunately, I don’t have any system restore points available when doing that. So, I realize that it would have been wise to create them.I’m hesitant to perform a factory reset on my computer because it would result in the loss of all my personal files. While I could transfer my files to the 'D:' drive to preserve

    it.

    Many thanks.

    Unable to undo a system restore

    You couldn't undo both anyway.

    Undo System Restore in Windows 11, 10, 8, 7 Without Data Loss

    It doesn't matter whether you are using Windows 10, Windows 8, 7 or XP. Here is a list of crucial information that you should be aware of:

    • A data backup is highly necessary before undoing a System Restore.
    • A System Restore cannot be canceled if you did it in Safe Mode.
    • A System Restore cannot be canceled if you did it from System Recovery Options.

    But read all the information there.

    undo system restore

    Yes in the system restore options there will be an Undo button to go back.

    1. If you boot to advanced startup options from within Windows 10, you must be signed in as an administrator to undo a system restore.

    2. Click/tap on Troubleshoot.

    3. Click/tap on Advanced options.

    4. Click/tap on System Restore.

    5. If you booted to advanced startup options from your Windows 10 installation media, click/tap on your listed Windows 10 OS, and go to step 7 below.

    6. If you booted to advanced startup options from within Windows 10, click/tap on an administrator account you want to provide credentials for.

    A) Enter the password for this administrator account, and click/tap on Continue.

    7. Click/tap on Next.

    8. Select the restore point that has Undo for its "Type", and click/tap on Next.

    See if that helps.
