Tips

• The first option in Step 3 will only delete the first partition and all other partitions will not be affected; the last two options will erase all partitions. The third option also creates two partitions and installs Windows to the "C:" volume.
• Copy any important files from the laptop to an alternate storage device before restoring the computer to the factory settings.
