Factory Reset Toshiba Laptop

[Keith_25]

So i accudentally checked somethin I knew would crash my laptop and now it wont startup. I hold 0 to initiate hard drive reset but i cant do it because i need the recovery disc for windows 10 which i dont have because i upgraded for free from wondows 8. Ive factory reset before but that was when i could use setting in the control panel. Is there any other way to factory reset or do I now own a brick?

Hi,

If your laptop was upgraded from Win 7 to 8 then 10 the built in recovery image will not work already unfortunately. What you can do is to order a recovery disc from Toshiba.

Here's where you can order a recovery disc: https/support.toshiba.com/repair

If you just want Windows 10, here's a complete guide on how to create a bootable Windows 10 USB or disc:
