Fresh start will remove many of your apps. The next screen is the final one: click on “Start” and the process will begin. It could take as long as 20 minutes, and your system will probably restart several times.

How do I factory reset Windows 10 fast?

Click the Start menu and select the gear icon in the lower left to open up the Settings window. You can also select the Settings app from the app list. Under Settings, click Update & Security > Recovery, then select Get started under Reset this PC.

How long should a factory reset take?

This procedure takes about a minute or 2 to complete. Depends on how fast your phone boots up. If you are talking about a factory reset, I would say it takes about 10 minutes to complete. Note: A factory reset erases all data on your phone and brings it back to a default factory state.
