Hello!

I have a question about factory resetting my laptop. I have Windows 10 right now. I upgraded from Windows 7. It's been about 1 year so I know I can't just click that "recover" or "restore" button that took you back. I'm thinking about factory resetting my laptop (I have a Lenovo T410). Will the factory restore take me back to Windows 7?

Thanks!

This depends.

If the original Lenovo Factory Reset partition still exists, and you use that...it will bring the system back to exactly as it came from the Factory. Windows 7.

If you go through the Windows 10 function, it will (hopefully) install a bare Windows 10.
