For those who see "Requires windows installation disc" , you need to click yes i have a disc, then skip, then it should bring you to the screen were you click no i dont have a disc and it restarts... now as it is booting up click f8 a bunch of times so it brings up a black screen with options, go up to repair computer and click enter! Now research the right recovery option (reset completely or scan for issues or whatever) there ya go!!
If you don’t have an Installation DVD, you can make a Usb hard-drive/flash-drive into an installation tool as well and use that (but you’ll have to purchase a product key to activate it separately)
hi, when i click advanced recovery methods its not show reset computer to factory reset its say reinstall windows(requires Windows installation disc) is this one delete all my data from pc like movie or games or only delete my windows and install it again ?
thanks man. helped a lot. been dealing with ALL of the windows 7 glitches for 4 years. no drag and drop, no wifi detected, no windows help...etc.. nice to see my wifi pop up again finally.
Thanks you so much i struggled for a month just to restore my computer I couldn't even use my computer for school but thanks you my laptop runs like its brand new you r a life saver now I can pass my classes now
This video is a godsend, all other text-based tutorials online just told me I needed the disk, or to do something that never worked upon bootup. This worked within minutes! Awesome video and thanks for the help.
THANK YOU SOOO SO SO FREAKING MUCH... I NEEDED THIS SO BADLY!! THIS IS HOW I GET RID OF VIRUSES. I WAS PLAYING A RANDOM GAME. THEN A BUNCH OF VIRUSES. AND MY BRO DOWNLOADED SOMETHING AND MESSEVERYTHING ELSE UP.... FUUUUUUUCCC...... THANKS YOU SO MUCH
Hi :) I have the same problem as some others 2nd Option states - Reinstall windows (requires Windows installation disc) *Do you have a work around for this problem at all* ?
I can't thank you enough for this straight forward video. You'd be surprised how hard it was to find something that explains this so simply. Thank you!
for some odd reason my laptop is only showing these two options "Use system image" and "Reinstall Windows (requires windows installation disc)" which doesn't work even when i do it. Please help!? :(
This is just a way of reinstalling IF YOU HAVE A RECOVERY PARTITION, which he never actually says; if you don't have one, you need a disk and then you might aswell just boot the disk...
I tried it because of continuous errors in my bluetooth drivers, I tried many different techniques but nothing worked. I gave the laptop a factory reset like shown here and I have to say it worked *PERFECT* thanks alot.
For a year my computer has been downloading programmes by it self and it would take me probably months to get rid of the useless programmes but because of this walk through it just took me half an hour! Thanks alot By the way I think we have got the same laptop
excellent everything worked exacttly as you said it would,I just resurrected this old Windows 7 laptop because I've been trying for weeks to restore my Mac with Time Machine a nightmare,at least I'll still have a working computer if I stuff up the next attempt.Will sell the Macs(2)and go back to Windows if I get them going,thanks again
My five year old HP PC desk top computer with Windows 7 crashed yesterday and I could not fix it. So, I followed the simple directions in the above video and was very successful at reinstalling Windows 7 to the original "out of the box" condition. After I installed it I used my back up USB flash stick to install all my personal files. Everything worked great! It took me about five hours from start to finish. Good luck!
+Lowry Pierce : The rest of the story… After I successfully reinstalled Windows 7 on my computer two days ago, (see above) I was overwhelmed by five years of security updates for Windows 7. So far, there have been about 250 security updates for Windows 7. Yikes! That is a lot. I have also had to endure numerous other updates for other software and hardware. All these numerous updates were way more time consuming and stressful that the reinstall of Windows 7. I hope and pray I am all caught up on the updates. My computer is running great now. I have no regrets. I had no choice. Good luck!
It's weird because I have this desktop, my main system, which has the return to factory setting option, but then I have a laptop with windows 7 home pro also, both the same os, yet it doesn't have the return to factory settings options. And my laptop is totally messed up and running like a three legged dog and I've no restore points either. :(
Moon beam restore point is one thing and system recovery is different. first you know what model is your laptop, find out what F function key gets you to the menu to perform system recovery. From then on is easier, you could loose data.
Simply all i did year's ago was bought a 160-Gig for a fiver for back-up's on Windows - 7,bought a new Laptop and Formatted the External drive and bingo as all - file's head to ''E'' -Drive and USB -Pen's. I Factory Reset my Acer and although it was 6 year's old it was wrecked to a crawl,and use it for KODI + TV now,still work's but not near as fast as my new HP-Laptop. It took 2 - weeks for all updates to finally go back-in the Acer then blocked Windows 10 by a program called GWX-Control Panel as my Windows build on 7 has nothing wrong with it and now all Linux....10/10 Nice Video as HP work really well
+El capullo yes you can do it from torrent sides and etc. storytime: i once looked for a phone headphone and i opened a the drawers on my fathers compiter desk drawer 1: printing paper and work stuff( dont want to touch) drawer2: cables (usb, micro usb, converters, etc.) drawer 3: storage hardwares ( i found 3micro sd-s with their sd adapters ,some usb flashdrive, and like 10 winxp and 3 win7 and 2 win8 cd.
Omg, thank you so much. I had multiple viruses on my desktop. I couldn't start up google chrome without a error message saying there is malware and a virus has been detected. Once again thank you.
This is an HP restore don't expect yours to look anything like this unless you have the same HP computer. His windows files are stored on a special partition you may need a disk. In short this is a terrible example as its not really a windows reset but is hooked the HP recovery on this guys PC.
I don't see the return Ur computer to factory conditions all i see is "reinstall widows" and us a a system image you created earlier to recover your computer
Guys you click on reinstall windows then there's two options the one you want would be the "Full Destructive Recovery" click on that then your computer will now wait then it'll be done. :)
***** you should have windows 7 set up as .iso file. (download if you don't have it ) then you can download Rufus or winusb maker and follow simple steps to make the usb bootable.
you guys must have clicked the wrong thing somewhere when doing this b/c at no time ever do you need a disc...why? b/c no one gets a disc with their compute! see if you can go back, back, back, til you figure out where you went wrong? i dunno what else to tell you...sorry for your troubles tho :(
Thanks for this video, ive not done this for a long time and its about time it got to a point where it is so simple but that it also formats the drive properly. ive never trusted the revert to a previous point software.
Thank you so much for making this, it made the process so much less intimidating for me. For a minute I thought it was my smoke detectors on there lol.
BIG BIG THX! You have the first place in my bookmarks. I try so many technics but they dont work and U was the last what I won try and its really work. dzięki stary. dziękuje mistrzu ZEN
Great! That made it super simple! Ive done this so many times, but I always forget where to begin, haha...thanks, that was quick and painless! Cheers! :)
I have a question, my wife's laptop is screwed and needs a system restore done, but for some reason unlike mine which when restarted will pop up a boot screen where u have options to press say F11 to get into system recovery, hers is totally gone. Ive done a system recovery on hers before so what happened? Any idea? Was wondering too, if I could use my recovery disc from my desktop on hers, but then what about activation?
I was curious about how restoring your computer will affect your security program? I use Norton Security for my computer that's not expired, so I was curious to know how it will be affected if I were to restore my computer. Thanks in advance
Thankyou so much, my laptop was workong really good when i bougth it but then when i downloaded some weird softwares it slowed down, hopefully it will clear out everything and make it fast again when i reinstall my windows :)
Thanks for the great video! Ok, so I have an HP pavilion dv6 laptop. I don't have any recovery discs or Windows disc, but I have the product key sticker on the bottom side...would I be able to just use that product key for windows 7 premium, even if it was used when we initially got the notebook? My cd/dvd player on this laptop doesn't work.
so time 2:33 where it says return your computer to factory condition i noticed mine says i need the windows disk. your pc does not say this i don't have the disc just the key can this still be done this way?
on 2:30 i don't get those options, first option is the same but for the second one i get reinstall window on the second option and for that i need the installation disc. :/
Hi, The best ideas that I have noticed was on Volt daddy (i found it on google) I bet its the most useful info on batteries and this same that i have found.
When i go to 2:26, instead of saying Return your Computer to Factory Condition, it says, Reinstall Windows (require Windows installation disc) which I don't have
Yeah people think the know the answers but the don't...you'll have to download windows 7 or 8 as an ISO and just reinstall it....instead of listening to idiots
isnt working on mine there was no "restore to factory settings" under "advanced recovery settings" I am using windows 7 pro does this make a difference

This helped me out a lot because I had forgotten how to do a factory reset on my laptop. Thanks again for having a how to video on RUclips.
You should make a video about how to replace the battery in your smoke detector. ;)

I thought I should go change my smoke detector battery until the video was over.
What a hoot.
Best comment RUclips comment EVER! See people, you don't have to be mean and nasty to be funny 😂
lol
thank you for not having a video recored with your phone or video camera this is so much better thank you
what if you don't have the windows disc
If you don’t have an Installation DVD, you can make a Usb hard-drive/flash-drive into an installation tool as well and use that (but you’ll have to purchase a product key to activate it separately)
This is stupid as fuck
@@antichristxpher3279 yes
If your computer came with Windows preinstalled you shouldn't need one

Thank you young man I am 67 yrs old lady and your instructions are clear and it worked great.
hi, when i click advanced recovery methods its not show reset computer to factory reset its say reinstall windows(requires Windows installation disc) is this one delete all my data from pc like movie or games or only delete my windows and install it again ?
First your going to need Windows disk to reinstall, and yes you will have option to reformat
buy a window disk :P
Before doing this move your windows files to a usb. You don't have to rebuy windows (over $100)
most bleak that means that you have or another has factory reset or reset with a dick before
most bleak I meant disk not dick ~d-_-b~ lol.
thanks man. helped a lot. been dealing with ALL of the windows 7 glitches for 4 years. no drag and drop, no wifi detected, no windows help...etc.. nice to see my wifi pop up again finally.
This restore method only works if your computer has a recovery partition, other wise you will have to use your Windows DVD to re-install Windows.
Omg thank u without u I’ve would never have gotten my computer back ❤️
Good vid. Put a battery in your smoke detector though haha
If I don't have a disc but a product key can I still reinstall Windows?

I appreciate the simplicity of this video. This worked on an older ASPIRE ONE netbook running windows 7 starter. Thank you!!
This video is not for all windows 7 systems. Some you must have the disk to reinstall windows. Waste of time.
The process still applies, the only difference is the added step of putting the disc in before the restore begins
Exacly, it didn't work on mine
