  2. After factory reset, microsoft account is still there

    I suggest that you add a local account first on your PC, before removing the other account. Follow the steps below:

    • To create a local account on your Windows 10 PC:
    1. Press the Windows key + R.
    2. Type netplwiz, and then click OK.
    3. Click Add.
    4. Click Sign in without a Microsoft account (not recommended).
    5. Click Local account, type a username, and a password (if you'd like one).
    6. Click Next, and then click Finish.
    7. Sign out of the Microsoft account you want to delete, sign in using the local account you created, and then remove the account you want to delete.
    • To remove a Microsoft account from your Windows 10 PC:
    1. Click the Start button, and then click Settings.
    2. Click Accounts, scroll down, and then click the Microsoft account you would like to delete.
    3. Click Remove, and then click Yes.

    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".
