Re: computer reset
I have used Windows 10 System Restore to regress to the latest checkpoint a couple of times with no problems.
I have nearly completed manually restoring an old Windows 10 PC after a Reset. The Reset completed with no problems and so far, I have encountered no significant issues reinstalling required apps.
No data was lost due to the Reset but checking and changing system and app settings is very time-consuming, which I expected.
The one problem that I have yet to resolve is networking. The Reset PC took itself off my local network. Extensive searching on the internet revealed that Windows 10 network problems are common mainly, it seems, because of the use of "services". I have managed to get 2 PCs to see each other but printers and external drives are, as yet, invisible.
Whether the work involved is worth the effort will only become clear once I have re-established the network but if I have to spend the weekend seeking a solution then I will not be happy .....
