[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 1103493, member: 175144"] Unless I'm mistaken, the Dells have W10 embedded within the recovery drive section, pressing refresh clears out the old one (complete with all upgrades it has taken on since connection to the outside world), plus any programmes that Microsoft feels are not condusive to the running of the machine. All personal files are kept secure until the operation is complete. Since pressing the button and waiting for about two hours, the PC has been running far quicker than is used to, with no change once Win Defender updated to the latest security elements. I have reinstalled the printer software and will introduce Malwarebytes when I next get a chance. [/QUOTE]
