Reflect Restoring To A New Surface Pro
How to Factory Reset Surface Pro without Password. How to perform a hard reset after forgetting your Surface Pro password? Need help resetting a used Surface Pro without installation disc? Surface Pro stuck at 'resetting your PC 7%'? In this tutorial we'll show you 2 ways to factory reset Surface Pro 4/3/2 tablet without either password.
- Then, I booted to the Reflect USB recovery drive and tried to restore the image from my old tablet to the new one. I first tried to restore just the C drive partition. I noticed the partition sizes from the image file and new surface hard drive were a little bit different but Reflect didn't complain and performed the restore.
- I have a desktop PC with Windows 10 home. I have created the Macrium Reflect rescue media on USB. ( I have used it to restore images and works fine ). I have a Surface Pro 4 with Windows 10 Pro, i have created an image of the disc using Macrium Reflect and saved it on my external. My question is.
I have a surface pro 5 that I bought for work and then they installed some software on it that allows me to VPN, restricts sign on options (no windows hello), prevents access to unknown local networks, etc. I've decided to get a new system, and want to do a complete wipe of the surface so that I can use windows hello and all the other cool stuff.
I went thought the process of a 'factory reset' which is the only thing I can find online. But after that was finished, I still see 'Some settings are hidden or managed by your organization' preventing me from changing my sign in options. So there's still some work related software hanging out somewhere.
What do I need to do to absolutely nuke everything in bios or whatever that allows me to restore the system to the state it was in when it arrived in the box?
