Can I do this while in Advanced options? I ask because my laptop won't let me go into safe mode it just keeps looping on start up and will eventually just give me the option to either restart or advanced options. Thanks for the vid either way!

[vayuputratraders]

by mistake i delete my restore point file before doing this step

[keiradesbiens]

I'm beyond fucking tired of microsoft's abysmal QA, in my case its the linux subsystem that doesn't install with the same god damn error (its not really a restore at all).
