Week 5 - Reinstalling OS

 There could be many reasons why you would want to reinstall your Operating System. Sometimes it is as simple as you’re selling your computer. Other time it could be because you have a massive number of files/apps on your computer, and you just want a fresh start. No matter what your reasoning is behind it, make sure you any important files saved elsewhere before re-installing your OS to your computer. Windows OS has made it fairly easy to reinstall your OS and gives you the choice of completely removing everything or keeping all your file but removing apps and settings installed on the computer. To get to this area simply go to the setting menu and find the update and security tab. From there click on the recovery tab and choose to reset the PC. This is where it gives you the option to remove everything or keep files but remove apps and settings. The other option is to use a media device. You download it from Microsoft to a blank USB flash drive. With the flash drive inserted, reboot your computer and go to BIOS to have it boot from the flash drive and go through the installation steps and it will reinstall for you.
