recovery

My computer is running Windows 10H2. It was upgraded from Windows 7, I have no install media. The "run as admin" doesn't work so I may need to do a "Recovery", "reset". If I reset I need to reinstall a lot of programs, "Apps and Features" says 173! How do I get a full list of these so I can...

Win 10 on my laptop. Yesterday I decide to go thru and delete files to recover space. When I got done, I ran a couple different disk cleanup programs. At this point my free space, instead of increasing, dropped from about forty something percent free space to a little over 2 GB free. What...

I have a VAIO core i5 laptop that died, seemingly of some sort of hard disk issues (or possibly a virus? ... However, McAfee didn't alert me to any virus problems). I tried lots of fixes (including using a bootable recovery USB that I had created in the past. For some reason, however, that...

I have a VAIO core i5 laptop that died, seemingly of hard disk trouble. After trying lots of fixes (including using my bootable USB, which just wouldn't work), I finally managed to get the computer to initiate recovery via 'VAIO Assist' and to do some hard disk repair, and then it seemed to work...

I tried using Ubuntu with a dual boot on my lower end system and found out I'm too stupid for it. I need to remove the partition it's in, but I'm not sure which one it is.

I just got a new machine and it already has windows 10 pre-installed. you have to choose the language. And the same thing goes on over and over again. I will not be able to use the machine when I have not yet been able to restore these initial settings. Some solution!

So, I was tinkering around w/my Dell Latitude E6440 laptop some weeks ago, let's say a month now and I mistakenly changed my permissions. Now almost no programs work, not even Windows Explorer. See the attachments for the messages I get... "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or...
