Windows 10: What will happen if i try to reset my PC from within the settings if windows files are...

As the title says, i have corrupted files within my windows. It hasn't been much of an issue, nor is it one now, but kinda is? I got a blue screen of death basically, and the error was ntfs.sys, but as it disappeared very quickly, i cant remember 100% but im pretty sure the specific error was SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION. I googled it, and the main reason i found was windows and/or system files. Understandable, since my PC is running 1909 version i believe, as the next one windows update gives out is 2004. Now, believe me when i say that i have tried EVERY possible solution to it, contacted suppor

How to factory reset Cisco 1700 Router

Hopefully I can help you here....its a very common thing to happen.


First, I take it you dont know the passwords for console access or telnet/ssh?

I will assume that these devices belong to you.

step 1. Plug a cisco console cable into a serial port on your pc
step 2. Plug other end into Cisco console port
step 3. Using hyperterm or putty or similar connect to the serial port
step 4. boot router, and make sure you clearly can see the output (this confirms you have good serial comms)
step 5. if this fails, adjust the comm port settings (9600, 8,1,n are the default)
step 6. now you have to do the only hard part...send the break command:

Break command list: Break Commands

Go down the list and match your OS and SW and try the sequence suggested.

If this fails several times do what I do: Install putty (free) and then to send a break so you can get into rommom just hit "ctrl-a b".

 

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
