Windows 10: Does factory resetting affects the D: Drive?

I'm bringing my laptop to repair the monitor at ASUS and they usually factory reset their customer's laptop with a warning beforehand. I didn't backup my laptop yet! What do I do for them to not factory reset it?

How to Factory Reset Drives?

Greetings,

I recently was having issues with my PC and decided to factory reset it from a USB drive. When it was finished resetting, I had 3 drives instead of my normal 2, so I deleted the extra one. I then factory reset it once more and when it was done I had Windows
on my 1 TB drive (D instead of my 100 GB drive (C. My C: drive only has 500 MB available on it now and it says I have 111 GB of unallocated memory. How do I reset my drives back to factory settings? I have tried resetting my PC and it has only reset files
but not the drives. Any suggestions?

Thank you
