How to reset to factory default settings, as if it was brand new?

I have a laptop Toshiba L300. I want to reset the laptop to factory default settings.

The reason is that whenever I use the browser firefox internet and explore when I do a search using the search engine, and when all the search results are listed and I click on a particular site, it takes me to a page at random. Once in a while, it may take me to the page I'm supposed to be after clicking on the site, but most of the time it takes to a crazy page irrelevant.

So I downloaded another web browser (google chrome) and there is no problem at all. I hope that if I restore the default settings, the problem can be solved.
Can anyone help?

Hey,.

Yes, I think reset factory settings would be best choice for this issue. You can use the recovery disk or recovery disk Toshiba feature.

Where is the difference?

-The procedure of recovery of HARD drive, you need to start using the advanced boot menu (F8) and repair my computer option. Follow the instructions on the screen and Windows will be resettled in the files on the HARD drive second. Only the first partition will be erased

-The Toshiba recovery disc erase your entire HARD drive. This means that you should back up files on the second partition as well. In addition you must boot from that disk.

Good luck! :)

  • "the preferences file is corrupt and has been reset to the default settings" cs4 Mac

    Greetings!

    whenever I run illustrator that I encounter a new error.

    "the preferences file is corrupt and has been reset to the default settings."

    "the corrupted file is saved as Adobe illustrator Prefs.err".

    This problem that manifests itself after I added a few other .ai and .ase files in my directory of nuances. I think not changed nothing else.

    don't know how to diagnose the problem. is there a mode debug or something? Maybe a file in question.

    one option would be to try to remove each added file swatch or folder individually, but it would be a very tedious process for me.

    I use cs4 on a Macbook pro running Snow Leopard - 10.6.2 and would appreciate your advice.

    Thank you

    s

    s,

    Whenever you close Illy, the current preferences (which may have been changed while you worked on files) are recorded, and every time that you start Illy, these preferences will be used.

    Usually, corruption of preference probably appears randomly, caused by the operating system, but if something in your files to change preferences to something that is not viable, you will get an error like this.

    You can press Cmd + Option + shift during startup, which will replace the current preferences with the default values, and no doubt you you get rid of the error message. It is probably not a cure, however.

    If the error is persistent, the cure would be to get rid of things that are implicated in the files you are editing.

  • Need advice on resetting to the default settings on the rn104

    Thus, after the 40th forced resync since the upgrade on my rn104 6.4 (System hangs / freezes and I have to unplug & plug in the power supply), I decided to do a reset to factory default.

    My setup is as follows, with two drives of 3 TB and two 2 TB drives.

    Furthermore, the actual use is the following, with 3.36 to free a total of 6.35 TB:

    Given that I don't have another external storage available at this time, I thought:

    (1) remove a 3 TB drive and let ReadyNas make its resync with the remaining drives (3 TB and two 3 TB)

    (2) to reformat the removed 3 TB drive and use as a backup disk for the data stored in the ReadyNas

    (3) reset the ReadyNas to factory default

    (4) catering for ReadyNas data from the backup 3 TB drive

    (5) reinstall the 3 TB in ReadyNas drive

    (6) let the new resync ReadyNas

    Is this a correct procedure above? Errors or best solutions?

    Thank you in advance!

    p.s. Logs don't show any problems with the disks, but unless I have use ReadyNas in read-only mode, all of a sudden it freezes and leaves me no other choice, but unplug the power and reboot.

    And whenever I do, there to resynchronization and it takes about 36hours to finish.

    I tried all the solutions on the forum, the deletion of snapshots to the deactivation of applications, but nothing: it keeps freezing. Moreover, even if I try to 'access' from different positions (l do not know the exact term), such as moving the files via SMB and others via http (for example with the browser interface) at the same time, the system hangs after a few minutes...

    I think it is quite likely. I'd give the beta version a try.

    How can I change my default settings so that Windows Explorer, downloads, etc., all open to the folder I chose instead of "libraries.

    Here is an article on how to change this folder opens when you click on an icon in Windows Explorer:http://www.watchingthenet.com/how-to-change-windows-explorer-icon-to-open-a-diffierent-folder-in-windows-xp-and-vista.html.  I think this will do the trick. Otherwise, maybe the following can help (but I think that's the answer you're looking for).

    Here's how to change the default template for a folder:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/70819-windows-explorer-folder-view-settings.html.  Default behavior is to select the model based on the first type of file placed in the folder (you must choose something).  Vista sets thefolder type template according to what are the types of files in the window and the settings display window Explorer. This will show you how to resetthe Windows Explorer folder view settings, disable Automatic folder Type discovery and increase theview of the folder cache to have Vista don't forget display settings, model of file type, size, or position of a specific window for when it was still closed to the location of specific path.  Keep in mind that it works, just a generic and holistic - it will not work for individual folders by folder.  That cannot be done in Vista.  But you can create shortcuts to the folders that you want and add to the desktop or right-click

    It does not work with the Sub record under, Open with,open in a new tab (Internet Explorer), etc... dialog windows of type through the goodFile menu bar item. These don't seem to be able to have their size or their position to recall. For the latter, you can use the free programhttp://autosizer.en.softonic.com/to resize them.

  • Reset the factory default ssd is a sure way to wipe ssd

    Using Windows7 64 bit, I have an option when reformatting a SSD (Kingston 64 GB V series with trim support) reset to factory default. Is that what will happen a secure erase so that I can sell the car without the risk of someone access to my personal information such as banking details online?

    Thank you

    Alan

    Hey AlanTaylor_854,

    To answer your question Yes Alan, when you wipe a SSD or 'format' you erase all the information out of him, so that your personal information will no longer be on this disk.

    I hope that this was the answer you are looking for.

    Hello

    Here are the different ways to reinstall Vista

    Contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

    you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

    Ask them of the exact key sequence

    or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    they contain all versions of vista

    This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed
