I was resetting my PC( Acer Corei7 8th Gen) now, i'm stuck on Windows 10 Licence Agreement. Same error code "OOBEEULA" keep showing up over and over again. It keeps telling me to try again and when i do it takes me back to the error code. Please assist, this is really frustrating

OOBE = Out of box Experience. EULA - licence agreement.

what type of reset? keep files or full reset?
If full, I would try a clean install and see if it gets you past that error
On another PC, download the Windows 10 media creation tool and use it to make a win 10 installer on USB

boot from installer - follow this guide: https://forums.tomshardware.com/faq/how-to-do-a-clean-installation-of-windows-10.3170366/

If you were keeping files, do you have a 2nd hdd or USB you can copy info onto?
boot from installer
on screen after languages, choose repair this pc, not install.
choose troubleshoot
choose advanced
choose command prompt
type notepad and press enter
in notepad, select file>open
Use file explorer to copy any files you need to save to USB or hdd

Then once its copied over, clean install.

I find resets to be buggy

You just made my day. I never would have considered this option. Thank you. That's saving a bunch of my data thanks to a corrupted windows update.
