In this video, I will show you two ways you can factory reset your Dell computer running Windows 11. One way will be inside Windows, from your Desktop. The other will be using the startup options in the case of your computer not being able to fully boot up to Windows. Remember, after a factory reset, its a good idea to fully update your system as seen here: • How To Update Windows ... . Check out the FAQ's and Related Video Links below !!

@@PC_Monkey Thank you for the reply, but I figure that most Win 11 PCs are "modern" enough to process data at a fairly decent speed. I was in a time crunch when I did the factory reset you featured herein, so I would've liked to have known, in general, how long the reset might take. Please take this as it's intended: as constructive criticism. Something like, "The Win 11 laptop used in this video was a XX gen Core i-X laptop - equipped with XX GB of RAM - and was built in the year 20XX. It completed the reset featured in this video in XX minutes. Your mileage may vary," would have been very helpful to me. Please keep on making the helpful videos. 👍

hey i have a question, i have a hp laptop that is pretty old, and recently after installing a app called fl studio which makes music it started being extremely slow (im going somewhere with this) and after i installed it i turned it off, and this laptop is very slow usually takes around 20 minutes to turn on all the way and the wifi was terrible you needed to be in the same room as the wifi and it didnt work while unplugged. but now it took 2 hours just to get past the hp loading screen, and when you enter the password it just doesnt load up. i decided to just factory reset it using shift and that power symbol on the screen where you put the password in and it factory resetted fine. it fixed the power issue so now it can be used without it having to be plugged in, but i cant use it. after the factory reset, it immedtly went into a boot loop. what do i do? i cant get it out of the boot looping and i was hoping you could help me solve this issue. thank you

@PC_Monkey
@PC_Monkey Ай бұрын
That depends on what software you have on your computer and where the restore point is. Seeing what happened to the software on my computer would be of little use. Depending on where the restore point is, you may lose some software before that point. Or if a restore point is not being used, you would lose all software installed after the 'factory settings' directly after factory. Usually, not a lot is included at that point.

The only part of the install process that differs from one brand to the other is how to initially access the startup options by using a function key and start the install process. After that, most brand computers will be the same as the Microsoft software takes over. What benefit would it have been to show that part on a Dell and not an HP?

Hi, my Dell Inspiron 7537 flashed a message about a critical battery failure and to replace before continuing. I have replaced the battery but PC will not boot up and after the Dell logo stops with a black screen. I watched some of your videos but it basically cannot factory reset, diagnose or any others options. After spending several days and countless hours, I thought up leaving a comment, maybe this can be resolved without too much expense. Thank you.

My laptop doesnt boot up and when I tried to factory reset through f11 it says "No bootable device" both in Legacy and UEFI. I've done the diagnoses several times with different settings and 0 errors found. Recently I tried to download a download an app in order to completely delete files, since I had dozens of game and other app files that couldn't be deleted (they were only bytes size, but I tried to clean it up so that I could use for work). Inside that same deleting files app there was "remove waste" and "clean hard disk".... As always.. I chose the worst option and cleaned my whole disk thinking it would only take away waste, however, it did actually remove everything, even so that I can't boot anymore. I've tested every tutorial, settings, etc, but still not working. Should I have my PC checked by a professional, buy a new one or try something else? I thank in advance for any help I can get, I need my computer in order to study for a test this month and for work, if there's any way I can get it working again I'd be grateful, if I need to have it checked in or, in the worst case, buy a new one. Thanks again and keep making these videos, you're the best.

1. Are you able to find any Recovery or Repair options in BIOS? 2. If changing the settings in BIOS did not help and the diagnostic scan showed the hard drive to be healthy, then you can proceed with the rest of the video. You can try the Repair or Recovery options in BIOS or undoing the last update if applicable. If that does not help, your last resort would be to install a new operating system.

So I have a Dell OptiPlex 3040 and when trying to figure out my GPU I ended up making my computer go black, unable to load into the PC, only the opening fell screen. Been trying to factory reset however I'm unable to find the option for it. F2 brings me to some maintenance thing and F12 brings me to bios. Neither F11, F10, or Del, have options and if they do I would not know as I assume when my PC tries to load it up, it goes black and I can't see anything. In desperate need of help here

I have a Dell Latitude 7480. I tested the bios and when trying to reset the operating system It will not let me get to the F11 function to do so. When the boot agent starts, I get two errors "PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable" and "PXE-M0F: Exiting intel Boot Agent" what are your thoughts? I bought this from PC Liquidators 1.5 years ago.

UEFI, Secure Boot Off Mode results in the error messages; UEFI, Secure Boot On Mode results in no bootable options found; Legacy Mode results in a stalled blinking cursor. If I change Boot sequence in Legacy putting Onboard NIC first, the result is the error message; if I make M.2PCIe SSD first, the result is a stalled blinking cursor. If I remember correctly, the booting has always shown those error messages, but the booting process would still continue into Windows.

I NEED HELP....lol I have a Dell Inspiron 15 7000 gaming computer. I do not remember the log in password. When I hold the shift key down and restart the computer I get the Troubleshoot option. When I tap the troubleshoot option in the next screen I only have Option 1 startup settings and option 2 UEFI firmware settings. There is no factory RESET option tab. Is there any other solutions for me?
