This goes for ANY used system.

I would never again use the option to “reset Windows 10.” When I have actually tried it (when I didn’t have a bootable W10 stick available), the process failed halfway through or created a Windows.old folder (when it was supposed to reset everything). As mentioned already, do a clean install. Also, if you changed a lot of things based off the internet, you may want to reset the BIOS to the default settings.
