Windows 10: Can someone help me with resetting my PC back to factory settings?

Hey. I've been trying to reset my PC back to factory settings for a little while now. While it was installing Windows, it reached 95% at the progress bar, but then for some reason it lapsed back to 88% and now will not continue any further for over 30 mins now and has been stuck on the same screen. Has anybody had this issue and if so what's the solution?

How to factory reset Cisco 1700 Router

Hopefully I can help you here....its a very common thing to happen.


First, I take it you dont know the passwords for console access or telnet/ssh?

I will assume that these devices belong to you.

step 1. Plug a cisco console cable into a serial port on your pc
step 2. Plug other end into Cisco console port
step 3. Using hyperterm or putty or similar connect to the serial port
step 4. boot router, and make sure you clearly can see the output (this confirms you have good serial comms)
step 5. if this fails, adjust the comm port settings (9600, 8,1,n are the default)
step 6. now you have to do the only hard part...send the break command:

Break command list: Break Commands

Go down the list and match your OS and SW and try the sequence suggested.

If this fails several times do what I do: Install putty (free) and then to send a break so you can get into rommom just hit "ctrl-a b".
