FAQ's"
Q: Its saying I need to 'Free Up Space'. What do I do?
A: Try deleting unnecessary data as shown here; • How To Free Up Space -... . If that does not work, then you would have to install Windows new.
How to install Windows 10: • How To Install Windows...
How to install Windows 11: • How To Install Upgrade...
You can create your own Install Media for free as seen in those videos or you can purchase it. You can see examples here in the Repair Tools list: www.amazon.com...
Q: Will this erase all my data?
A: If you perform the hard reset, yes. You an choose the other option which will not delete all your data but there is still a chance of loosing data you want to save. Best to always back up data first.
Q: It saying 'insert your windows installation or recovery media to continue'
A: If you cannot Factory Reset, you will have to try a new install of Windows.
You can see how to install Windows 10 here: • How To Install Windows...
You can see how to install Windows 11 here: • How To Install Upgrade...
Q: I cant seem to access the startup recovery options by hitting F11
A: Hitting F11 for the Startup Recovery Options is usually only a step for older computers. Newer computers usually start up too fast to allow access to that. Can you not access Windows and reset from there? If not, what is happening when you try to start the computer? If your having startup issues with your HP computer, can you try the steps seen here? • How To Fix - HP Stuck ...

For me, my brother passed down his laptop to me because he got locked out of it. The pin said it wasn't available anymore and the Microsoft account we used for it was no longer available so it was unable to be used since the pin no longer worked. I spent months and months trying to figure out how to fox it or just figure out how to get the account we used for the laptop. It never came back. The laptop could not be used no more because of it, eventually i found your tutorial and followed the steps and holy damn i thank you so much. I was very worried it wasn't going to work because of not i would of had to send it to someone and pay a ton of money to get it fixed and financially i am unable to do that since i dont earn money at all. You saved me from having to pay so much money just for it to get fully reset. Thank you, man

Thanks for the information! Your video helped me a lot and saved me a phone call to Microsoft.

Excellent content!! Question I had a option after recovery attempt , if you wanted to you use cloud reinstall or from the device?
Thanks :) If you have a restore point saved online anywhere, you can use the cloud option. If not, you can use a recovery media. Usually on a USB. If you dont have either option, the reset may not work. In that case you would have to reinstall as seen here:

Had to watch the second half of this video! Found a tossed out HP 15 bs212
This has been really helpful so far. I was able to see that my hard drive is okay so I'm trying to do a factory reset, but it's stuck on please wait after pressing f11. Any idea why this might be happening? I also ran a system check as in your previous video and everything appears to be in order. Thanks for all your help !
If, for some reason, the Operating System is too corrupt to allow a Factory Reset, then you will have to install Windows fresh as shown here; ua-cam.com/video/p_N_xV7j_Xo/v-deo.html. You can create your own Install Media Free here; ua-cam.com/video/g_UhiHScaSI/v-deo.html

My USB is not found in the boot manager and f11 isn't allowing me to factory reset.
@@aced9348 Try the other USB ports. Some computers will only accept one of them for installing Windows
I have three usbs and the boot manager was blank or it gave me two others to boot from either worked or was labeled as my particular drive.

What do I do to clear space I’ve tried removing files deleting apps and I just don’t know what to do because it only causes a little bit of space but it still says I need around 2 GB to do so
This is happening to me as well, did you learn how to clear it?
