    Windows 10 laptop refuses to restore


    Hi, I realise that this question has been asked a lot but all of the solutions suggested don't work for me. I have a HP laptop with Windows 10 that I want to restore to factory settings to sell.


    I have tried the usual 'reset this PC' through the control panel which didn't work. I have tried the scannow option on command prompt which hasn't worked as the windows resource protection could not start the repair device'. I have tried various options to repair that through various commands which haven't worked and lastly I have tried to reinstall Windows 10 which also won't work.


    Help!


    Thanks

    :)

    Restoring Windows 10 Image using Macrium Reflect


    In addition to the above. Here's my suggestion in step by step.
    I assume you have Macrium Installed in your current HD and already made a backup copy.
    1. Connect your new HD via USB port and boot up.
    2. Run Macrium, click on Restore tab then select the Backup Image that you made to restore
    3. click on "select a different target disk" then select your new HD as destination

    4. Proceed to restore then Shutdown and disconnect the old HD and replace with the new HD
    5. Boot up with your new HD.

    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

    Windows 10 laptop refuses to restore

    Windows XP PRO error after restore

    System restore is handy when it works like it did for me 2 days ago saving the need to reinstall all of my software as well as windows, id suggest using norton Ghost 12 for an excellent system restore feature.
