RESETTING YOUR DEVICE
If your PC isn’t running well, resetting it might help. This lets
you choose to keep your files or remove them, and reinstall
Windows.
To restore your device:
1. Select the Action Centre button in notifications;
2. Select
All Settings > Update and security > Recovery >
Reset this PC;
3. Select Get Started to choose an option from
Keep My Files
or
Remove Everything;
4. You can also find further options if you select
Advanced Startup.
Note:
Apps installed from the Windows Store are
automatically reinstalled after the refresh is complete. Apps
installed from sources other than the Windows Store are
removed and will need to be manually installed. A list of apps
removed during this process is created on the desktop after
the process is complete.
In shutdown status, the user can press and hold the Power
and Volume keys at the same time to boot the XIDU PhilBook
into Recovery mode, for the purpose of repairing or resetting
the system. Alternatively, try turning the device on then off
repeatedly, for at least three times.
Caution:
Resetting your device erases all data from your
device, including your account configuration, apps, music,
pictures, files, and so on. Make sure that you back up all of the
required data before proceeding.
