  1. Will Reset This PC > Remove Everything remove my windows version?


    Perhaps I wasn't specific enough in the title,I've had my PC for a while and It's quite unorganized and messy, so I'm going to factory reset it and have a fresh start.When I originally purchased my PC, I bought Windows 10 Pro and then upon the release of Windows 11, immediately free upgraded to Windows 11 Pro.My question is, if I fully reset my PC and select Remove Everything option will I still keep my Windows 11 Pro or will it just re-install the default Windows 11.Bear in mind I no longer have the activation key for windows.

    :)

    Reinstalling Windows 10 to sell a PC - is the 'Remove everything' option enough?

    Restore factory settings do list Removes your personal files, apps and settings, and reinstalls the version of Windows that came on this PC.

    So if this isn't true well than just erase the drive and install a clean Windows 10 with all the drivers u need but why should it be true

  3. Best way to remove problem Malware

    Hi There,

    I am trying to remove a bundle of Malware without success.

    There is a bundle of listed programs which I try to uninstall through the typical Control Panel effort, but they remain listed there:

    Buenosearch Toolbar
    MyPC Backup
    PC Performer
    Speed Test 127
    UnknownFile

    I was looking at this weblink which provides a 5 step process for Buenosearch alone:
    http://malwaretips.com/blogs/remove-bueno-search/

    Not sure how much certain guides can be trusted. One of the first things I read was to download Revo Uninstaller, and I've not heard of it so I'm not sure if it's trustworthy..........
