Using Windows Refresh for quick and easy recovery

When your computer is not working properly and you need to regain system stability, the Windows

Refresh option allows you to start fresh and keep what is important to you.

system at the factory.

NOTE: During Refresh, a list of removed traditional applications will be saved so that you have a

quick way to see what you might need to reinstall. See Help and Support for instructions on reinstalling

traditional applications. From the Start screen, type h, and then select Help and Support.

NOTE: You may be prompted for your permission or password when using Refresh. See Windows

Help and Support for more information. From the Start screen, type h, and then select

Help and Support.

To start Refresh:

1. From the Start screen, point to the far-right upper or lower corner of the screen to display

the charms.

2. Click Settings.

3. Click Change PC settings in the bottom-right corner of the screen, and then select General

from the PC settings screen.

Under Refresh your PC without affecting your files, select Get started, and follow the

on-screen instructions.
