  • In This Video, I'll Be Showing You How To Factory Reset A Computer Or Laptop To Factory Settings Running Windows 10, If you Simply Want To Give It To Someone Without Your Data Or If You Want To Sell It. This Is Also Called In Other Terms, How to reset windows 10 to factory settings, or how to hard reset a laptop or pc running windows 10, and or how to format windows 10 without cd or USB.
    ⚠️Disclaimer: This Only Works For The Hard Drive/ SSD That Windows Is Already Installed On, If You Have A Secondary Hard Drive OR SSD You Need To Manually Format That Drive To Remove Your Data. This Tutorial Is Not About A Full Phase Drive Wipe (Meaning Data Can Still Be Recovered Using Third-Party Software), The "Fully Clean The Drive Option" As You See In The Video Can Act Like A Full Phase Wipe But Can Last Many Hours To Complete Just FYI.
    ⚠️. If you get a option that says local or cloud, do a local so it can disconnect it self from the email you used t sign on to Microsoft. You can verify it took your files by not signing on to your computer using your email, you can choose the no Microsoft account to sign on by not connecting to the internet At the begging of the initial setup at the beginning.

      Any option is fine. Cloud download takes more storage and it will take hours to proceed the process, or you can choose local reinstall windows, where it will only take a minute or two for the process. You can choose any option, and the data will still be completely removed
