When we use a computer, we sometimes reset the computer to solve some problems. However, some Win10 system users find that the settings cannot open after the reset. What can we do? Next, I will explain to you the specific solutions for the setting that cannot open after the Win10 system reset.
The Meaning of Win10 Reset This Computer
Windows 10 comes with a reset computer system, which can be restored on the original system. It can selectively retain personal files and data. It cannot retain the previously installed software. It is restored to the way that Win10 just started, which is equivalent to restoring the computer to factory settings. However, the disadvantage is that if the system crashes completely, you cannot use the reset system without entering the desktop.
The functions of the reset system are divided into Keep my files and Remove everything options, which replace the wrong system files for the effect of resetting. How to tell the difference between Keep My Files and Delete Everything?
Keep My Files
“Keep my files”, what files do you keep? That is the personal files stored on the C drive, such as documents and photos on the desktop.When you select this option, the downloaded source files will be retained. However, everyone needs to pay attention: you need to reinstall after resetting!
Suggestion: If your computer has important data and the system is abnormal, you can choose this option.
Remove Everything
Deleting all content means deleting all personal files. When you select this option, please note in advance:If your computer does not have any information that needs to be retained, or you want to have a brand new operating system, then you can choose this option!
What is the Difference Between the Two Sub-options Included?
To put it simply, the former will reset the system disk. If you have partitioned the system disk, the allocated space will also be affected. This requires attention!
The latter will reset all drive letters, not just the system drive.
