How long will resetting my PC take

Hi Cameron! My name is David. I am a user of Microsoft products like you, and it is a pleasure to greet you.

I understand your frustration with the PC reset process. The duration can vary, and one crucial factor is whether your PC uses an HDD (Hard Disk Drive) or an SSD (Solid-State Drive). If your PC has an SSD, the reset process is likely to be quicker, often taking around 1 to 2 hours or probably less. However, if you have an HDD, it might take a bit more time, potentially several hours, depending on the amount of data you need to back up or remove. Keep in mind that these are general estimates, and the actual time may vary based on your specific situation.

If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please feel free to ask.

Depends on what method you use to reset your PC.

For example: If you do it from Start > Settings > Update and Security > Recovery > Reset this PC, you can be over and done in a few minutes.

However, if you're certain that bugs and broken updates are what's making you reset your PC, you're reinstalling the same bugs and will be getting the same updates.

Before you do anything drastic, I suggest you ask here (or elsewhere, as you prefer) about the problems your PC is facing. There could be solutions.
