  1. I think my laptop factory reset itself


    I turned off my laptop because it was being slow when I tried to watch YouTube so I closed all my taps and apps that were currently open and I held down the power button and and slide down the part that says slide to power off or something similar to that and when I turned it back on all of my stuff was gone and I couldn’t open any apps besides the settings and the ones on the desktop.If it matters the laptops about a year old now and it’s an asus tuf dash f15 laptop

  2. how do i reset a asus laptop to factory settings?

    The process of resetting an Asus laptop to factory settings can vary depending on the model and operating system. However, here are the general steps you can follow:



    1. Back up your important files and data to an external hard drive or cloud storage as resetting your laptop to factory settings will erase all data.
    2. Press the "F9" key repeatedly while the Asus laptop is booting up. This will take you to the recovery menu.
    3. Select "Restore factory settings" from the menu.
    4. Follow the prompts to confirm the reset process.
    5. Wait for the reset process to complete, which may take several minutes.
    6. Once the reset is complete, your Asus laptop will be restored to its original factory settings.

    Recovering Windows License After Factory Reset

    I am planning to perform a factory reset on my laptop. I have a few concerns about my Windows license:

    1. Will I be able to recover my Windows license after the factory reset?
    2. Is there any specific step I need to take before performing the reset to ensure my license is retained?
    3. How can I verify my Windows license information before the reset?

    I think my laptop factory reset itself

    Ive factory reset my computer but I can't use the mouse or the keyboard to select laugage

    Hi,

    A device like your keyboard and mouse is not detected during factory reset.
    To help us determine the appropriate troubleshooting steps
    that can resolve your concern, we would like to ask the following questions:

    • Are you performing a factory reset on a laptop or a desktop?
    • Is this the first time you perform a factory reset on your device?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far to resolve your concern?

    In the meantime, if you're working on a desktop, we suggest that you try to use a PS2 keyboard just to bypass the installation process. Once Windows is up and running, you may now plug your mouse and keyboard to initialize Windows to detect these devices.

    We look forward to your response.
