Here I have Acer Switch 10 and let me show you how to accomplish hard drive operation
0:09
on this device, so how to remove everything from the following tablet
0:13
So at the very beginning let's hold down power key just to switch on your device and then
0:17
you will see a home screen as you can see on my device
0:21
Afterwards you have to find and select settings so let's tap Windows button in that corner
0:26
choose settings right here, you can make it bigger and here you have a list of settings
0:34
that you can use on this device, so you have to choose the last option right here, update
0:41
and security, let's tap it and here you have a couple of options from the left bar, let's
0:47
choose recovery right here and in recovery tab you've got reset this PC, so if your PC
0:55
isn't running well, resetting it might help, this lets you to choose either you would like
1:02
to keep your files or remove them and of course reinstall Windows, so let's tap get started
1:07
right here, under the reset this PC, let me tap it one more time, excellent, as you can
1:19
see the following menu pops up, so you have to decide either you would like to keep your
1:24
files so remove apps and settings but keep all of your personal files or remove everything
1:29
so remove all of your personal files, apps and settings, so remove everything is the
1:35
same as hard reset operation so let me choose remove everything right here, now you have
1:53
to decide either you would like to just remove your files so it's much more quicker operation
2:00
but it's less secure or remove files and clean the drive, so this might take even a few hours
2:05
but will make it harder for someone to recover your removed files so if you would like to
2:11
sell your device or give somebody your PC it's better to remove files and clean the
2:16
drive, if you would like to keep your PC you can just perform just remove my files so in
2:21
my case let me choose the first option and then the following logo pops up so it means
2:28
that you have to plug in your device to your battery charger, let me do it, so let's plug
2:33
in your battery, wait a few seconds, let me find right here the connector and as you can
2:42
see your device is now ready to reset so resetting will remove all the personal files and user
2:48
accounts on this PC, any apps and programs that didn't come with this PC and any changes
2:54
made to settings so if you are sure about the whole operation let's tap reset right
2:58
here, let me do it, now the device is performing the hard reset operation, the device erasing
3:06
all personal stuff and customized settings so you have to just wait until the whole operation
3:10
will be completed, it may take even a few hours or maybe a couple of minutes about 20
3:17
or 30 minutes, let's just be patient and wait until everything will be completed, do
3:22
not interrupt while the process is running so let's just wait until you see a welcome
3:28
panel and then you will be able to activate your device to go through the initializing
3:32
setup process and start using your tablet, so as I said now all you have to do is just
3:38
wait until everything will be completed, thank you for watching, please subscribe our channel
