I tried this but it's still not working. And also I tried to search the recycle bin in pc folder but it's nowhere to be found. What should I do?

This video is wrong. After watching it, I could not even find the 'personalization' item on the 'settings' menu. The enitre left column of the display is wrong.Some idiot made a simulation with fucking loud music. If this is not correctable, this computer is gong back for refund or replacement with a W10 unit even if it is used unit.
