How to Fix Windows 10 Unable to Reset PC Problem

How to Fix Windows 10 Unable to Reset PC Problem

Another bug has been found with the latest update for Windows 10 2004 users. Windows 10 reset failed after updating, it disables this Reset this PC feature for anyone still running Windows 10 version 2004. So if you are having pc problems and try and attempt resetting this pc, an error message will appear: "There was a problem when resetting your PC. No changes were made. This means that you wont be able to reset your pc. Microsoft know about the error as you can see from the link below, there is a temporary workaround which I show in this video.

There was a problem when resetting your PC. No changes were made.

1. sfc /scannow

2. DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

3. cd %windir%\system32\config
ren system system.001
ren software software.001

4. reagentc /disable

5. system restore

6. fresh install

After like 30+ years of windows, they’re still a complete disaster, you can’t even properly use the tool that’s supposed to just wipe the computer, what a joke.

If I am locked in a room with Hitler, Stalin, bill gates and a gun with two bullets i double tap bill gates. Holy shit, the function is called “wipe pc” how can this be so difficult?

[stigmakim]

The first command resolves the issue even MS official support couldn't help me on it with 30 mins call. You are a LEGEND.

Only Windows would need to fix the tool that is suppose to fix problems.

The last one fixed my issues. I didn't realise you could install Windows 10 by the setup even when using Windows 10, I assumed you had to remove it first and then install. Thank you for the help

At 2:55 the error I get is:

“The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process”

The last message win10 should display:
YOUR S.O.L
Wipe drive and reload.

I have something to add. Make sure that the app reediness service is enabled, cause it causes the pc not to reset

[mzamnesia]

"Oh your computer won't boot up and nothing is working so you wanna reset entirely?... no :)" I fucking hate computers so much

[jaredchampagne]

I swear windows goes out of their way to make their operating systems extremely hard to use, 30+ years now, and you still want to pull your hair out every time you try to fix something. What a joke.

This has been around for ages and still no fix. Way to go Microsoft

Worked for me, tried reseting in 3-4 different ways before this video and this was the only thing that worked 👍🏼

[orebrighton]

When I enter "ren software software.001" it says "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

[TaskForce-imsm]

Boot into your desktop and make sure windows security... Anti virus is enabled and real time protection is also enabled go into settings, updates then click recovery click reset everything after clicking get started. Note: (optional) you must back up your files into usb or sd card first

[BrokenTho]

so why cant they make an update where they let you reset your PC where it wont say no changes were made

[vapedxd]

Brian: it should scan your files for a problem
My pc: just give me a few hours, I'm busy

[bantymech]

Brian really you're a legend, no channel has done this type of videos. :)

[johncone]

Me: I would like to reset my pc
Microsoft: Reset machine broke
Me: Understandable have a good day

[sineth]

After i enterd "ren software software.001", it shows me "the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process."
What can i do for this?
