- Use this video to show you 2 methods to Factory Reset your HP laptop. The first method assumes your computer turns on and works well so you can reset from inside Windows. The second assumes your computer does not turn on correctly and you need to reset from the start-up options. Remember, after you reset or install Windows new, make sure you fully update as seen here: • How To Update Windows ... .
If the factory reset does not work for some reason, then move on and try to install Windows new.

Wtf I have no F11
Will you also be here for my questions?@@PC_Monkey
For me, my brother passed down his laptop to me because he got locked out of it. The pin said it wasn't available anymore and the Microsoft account we used for it was no longer available so it was unable to be used since the pin no longer worked. I spent months and months trying to figure out how to fox it or just figure out how to get the account we used for the laptop. It never came back. The laptop could not be used no more because of it, eventually i found your tutorial and followed the steps and holy damn i thank you so much. I was very worried it wasn't going to work because of not i would of had to send it to someone and pay a ton of money to get it fixed and financially i am unable to do that since i dont earn money at all. You saved me from having to pay so much money just for it to get fully reset. Thank you, man

What do I do to clear space I’ve tried removing files deleting apps and I just don’t know what to do because it only causes a little bit of space but it still says I need around 2 GB to do so
This is happening to me as well, did you learn how to clear it?
@@theo4tisg no not really BUT I did an update that I knew I didn’t have space for then it said not enough storage and gave me the option to transfer to a drive so I did and it cleared 3g

Same
Same bro
That happened to me but I don’t remember if it mentioned “where windows is installed “so I just plugged in my charger and it worked ok
Do not add the cloud thing
Bro when I reset the pc option with remove everything it stops when it’s half way and puts me back to recovery and I’ve tried absolutely everything my pc won’t start up
If this video did not help you with your issue then you should try to reinstall the Operating System as shown here;

Yeet
I try to clean it completely but then it says Additional free space is needed on the drive where windows is installed. Free up some space and try again
I’m getting the same thing
Free some space to delete space

When I try to reset, it says "there was a problem resetting your pc" and I've tried all the reset options. Hard reset and soft but the same thing keeps coming up
If, for some reason the factory reset fails, you will have to install Windows fresh as shown here; th-cam.com/video/p_N_xV7j_Xo/w-d-xo.html. You can create your own Install Media Free here; th-cam.com/video/g_UhiHScaSI/w-d-xo.html
mine is the same you have to delete a certain amount of storage before hand
OMG THANYOUsooooo much this helped a lot cause my pc was acting UP. Bro YESS YOU A PC SAVER
Happy to help :) Always here if needed !!
I done everything and for me it says that I need to insert my windows installation or recovery media to continue
If, for some reason you cannot Factory Reset, you should try to reinstall the Operating System as shown here;

Remember to check the FAQ's on my videos! It could save you time getting an answer to common questions :)
