How many times have you reinstalled Windows because it had a pesky conflict, or was just running slow? With Windows 8, you can simply Refresh to start over.



From PCWorld:

One of the coolest features of Windows 8 is Refresh. Regardless of why you might want to start over, Refresh gives you a quick and easy way to start with a clean slate while also maintaining your apps, data, Windows settings, and user profile.

I’ve always been a proponent of Windows System Restore. If things start running wonky you don’t need to bother troubleshooting--just go back in time to a known good state using Windows System Restore. Since its inception, though, Windows System Restore has had its issues, and for many people it seems to fail when they really need it most.
