A factory reset in Windows 10 does a full factory restore on a PC that came pre-installed with Windows 10. This is usually only an option if your device came from an Original Electronics Manufacturer (OEM) such as HP, Dell, or Lenovo. It will take you back to the version of Windows that was installed at that date while removing all of your apps, files, drivers, and settings changes.
