Before starting the guide we remind you that maybe your version of Windows is acting improperly because it needs an update. It may be time to a “Tune up” using the update tool that comes pre-installed within the system.

Many times we believe that the operating system should be restarted when what we really need is simply a pending update.

There are a wide variety of reasons why our computer may function improperly. From viruses or malicious software to component failures due to overheating. We explain this to you because perhaps by restoring your version of Windows your problems remain.

Otherwise, if your computer isn’t working properly and throws too many error messages, it’s definitely time to factory reset Windows.

If this is the scenario, that it will be essential for you to back up all the files before proceeding with the restoration, it will be the only way to ensure that your files are not lost.

Although Windows gives you different options at the time of the reset, you can decide between deleting everything or making a manual selection. The best option to be 100% sure is to make a backup of everything important first, better to avoid surprises.

Restoring Windows involves deleting all installed or ed files after activating the operating system.

You can decide to keep your documents and files saved, but if they are linked to installed or ed programs after system activation they will also be removed.

In this guide we will show you the reference images of operating systems installed in the English language, do not worry if your computer is in Spanish, we will also give you written instructions in both languages.

There you must click on the security and updates option.

Once within the recovery options, you must click on the button that has the word start right below the subtitle that says restart this computer.

Clicking will bring up a blue popup window which will give you a couple of options to choose from. You can decide between keeping all your files and only remove the applications you have ed, or decide to delete all the files on your hard drive so that it remains agency.

If you select the first option and choose to keep the files, you must choose from a wide list which files you want to delete and which ones you want to keep.

In case you choose the second option, the files will be permanently removed to clean and restore your hard drive in this way.

If you are doing this procedure with the purpose or with the hope of correcting malfunctions in your system we recommend you choose the second option to truly reset your factory equipment.

When you choose one of the two options, a window very similar to this will appear, depending on your version of Windows installed. The only thing you need to do is click on the “reset” button or in Spanish “reset”.

Clicking on your computer will restart it and after a few minutes the reset process will start. It will run automatically, just wait until your Windows operating system is working again.

The process will take considerably longer if you selected the option to delete all files.
