Operating System Recovery

Restore Windows. Here is what each of these actions do:
If your PC isn't performing as well as it once did, and you don't know why, you can
refresh your PC. This action doesn’t delete any of your personal files or change
your settings. Refresh does the following:
Files and personalization settings won’t change.
PC settings are changed back to their defaults.
Apps from the Windows Store are kept.
Apps installed from disks or websites are removed.
List of removed apps is saved on the desktop.
If you want to recycle your PC, give it away, or start over with it, you can reset it
completely. This process removes everything. Reset does the following:
All personal files and apps are removed.
PC settings are changed back to their defaults.
Windows is reinstalled.
If a recently installed app or driver is causing problems with your PC, you can
restore Windows back to an earlier point in time, called a restore point. System
Restore doesn’t change your personal files, but it can remove recently installed
apps and drivers.
Caution - Before performing a reset or refresh:
