I got a Lenovo laptop about 6 months ago and I've installed a bunch of stuff on it and blah blah blah. It's still working a-ok, but I want to restore it to get rid of Windows rut.
Now this laptop came with OneKey recovery, which apparently has a hidden partition with an image of the original system. So I can use it to set the system back to defaults, back to the way it was when I got it right?
But Win8.1 also has a restore feature that can allegedly reset my computer. But the thing is, my laptop came with Windows pre-installed, meaning no discs, nothing. Can I use this restore function WITHOUT any disks? And if so, will it erase the partition made by OneKey recovery? Will I have to reinstall drivers with the windows restore?
So basically which method should I use to reset my laptop?
