Don't know how to reset my device (Computer)
If your device doesn't perform as good as it is supposed to, and you have tried everything to fix it but nothing worked, you need to reset it.
There are two ways of resetting a device: hard reset (hardware reset), which involves deletion on all the data stored in your device and soft reset, which involves resetting the settings only, and not deletion of data.
Read the solutions carefully to avoid data loss, and other unwanted outcomes.
