Factory Reset Custom Build

[Wontonmaster]

I wanted to factory reset my custom build, but I wasn't sure if I need the Windows 10 discs, and also if its a good idea to factory reset because my computer is running slow and programs won't open correctly. All help is appreciated, thanks.

Hi,

I would suggest doing a clean install of Windows 10 using a disc or USB instead of doing the factory reset inside Windows.

Here's how to create a bootable Windows 10 USB or disc:

And here's a guide to install Windows 10:
