Just your run of the mill Windows 10 question :)

Hey, folks

 

So on the 29th I upgraded to Windows 10, no problems during the upgrade nor after it, BUT... I didn't get the option to do a clean install.

 

So right now I want to do a "factory reset" and here comes my question - when I do that, will it stay on Windows 10? Because when I did the reset on Win8.1 a couple months ago, I got "reverted" back to Win8 and I had to do all that tedious work of updating and upgrading to Win8.1 all over again and seeing I only have a 3Mbps internet, that could take a BIG while...

 

Thanks for your help

you can do a "reset" and run disk cleanup

about the same result

I know HOW to do it, I wanted to know, if it will stay on Win10 or revert back to Win8/8.1 like it happened to me before?

there are different "resets" one of them just removes all of your apps and data

let me check and get back to you

ok so they changed it in windows 10 theres only 1 reset now

i guess you can remove the recovery partition on your computer to make sure that it doesnt revert

It'll stay on Windows 10, had to use that method on my tablet as I can't use a USB drive to do a clean install of windows on that lol.
