    I downloaded a copy of the movie Get Out from YTS and ever since I opened the file on VLC, my Windows 10 PC keeps refreshing and the system is unresponsive. I guess that’s the folder that’s corrupted. I’m unable to open any application, including windows explorer and run box. I tried to reset my PC with the option “keep my files”, but some error occurred and stopped the process. I did it again and got the same result. Now, I need my files on the C drive (system drive) and I don’t want to lose them. I tried sfc/scannow, disabling Windows error reporting service, booted in safe mode with networking but I can’t login with my password (I’m sure the password’s right, I’m able to login in other devices). Nothing seems to work. Is clean install the only option or is there any other way I can restore my PC with the files on C drive? Please, help me

    Questions about doing a reset to my OEM Win 10

    Navy, does Restore "Restore Factory Settings" keeps the users data?
    Shawn gave me this link Refresh Windows 10
    It's almost the same as Reset.

    Naknir, witch one of the following did you use:


    - - - Updated - - -

    My suggestion:
    - Save all your data on an external disk
    - Reboot and enter BIOS. It should have a option to Factory Restore.

    How to delete inactive System Image Restore Points in System Restore

    Windows 10 64-bit.
    When I click "show more restore points" in System Restore I see a bunch of old "system image restore points" that were deleted in past and do not correspond to any currently active restore points. Clicking any of these old restore points, I simply get an error message saying they could not be found, and to select another restore point instead.I would like to delete these restore points listings but have been unable to do so.
    So far, I have tried steps mentioned below without any luck :

    Disk Cleanup through (CWin 10 2004 keeps refreshing and the system is unresponsive. Unable to reset, restore... :) Properties
    Disable System Protection (OFF and ON) in System Protection for OS (CWin 10 2004 keeps refreshing and the system is unresponsive. Unable to reset, restore... :)
    Disk Space Usage to minimum (slider button all the way to the left then 'Delete all restore points for this drive'),
    Delete all shown Restore points in CCleaner (the problem ones do not show here),
    Reset Windows Backup to Default in Windows 10 with 'Reset_Windows_Backup.bat' utility.

    Any suggestions highly welcome.
