Reset vs Fresh Install | Razer Insider
Skip to main content
I have a Razer 15 laptop. I am being told to do a fresh install of windows to get rid of any unwanted files. Want my computer to be like the day I took it out of the box. I also read that a fresh install is done faster with less storage used than a reset.



Does doing a reset give me the same, brand new system that a fresh install would? I want to do what works best, but also most convenient. If doing a fresh install of windows I'm assuming I'll be downloading an iso to a memory stick and going that route?



Again, no issues with my laptop, just want everything clean once a year.



Thanks
Reset will give you clean system image, that was installed on your laptop (with all the bloatware integrated).



Only clean install, with ISO image downloaded from Microsoft. It's more time consuming, but you'll have only software, that you've installed.
