Hi All
Hope you can help. I have an Aspire A515-51 which is having problems running some of my software since Windows update KB4284835 which i cannot uninstall. I have tried every method but nothing removes it. So decided on factory reset using Alt & F10 and have found that the update is already installed even without wifi access etc. How is it doing this and how can I get a from the factory version of win 10.

Problem with software is really small fonts in Sage Accounts which cannot be changed via display etc.

Thanks for looking

    Thanks Kamalika

    Tried all that but doesnt remove it.

    I have resolved this by downloading and installing an older version of Win 10 before the update and have my software back. Fed up that factory reset is not actually a factory reset though. Come back Bill Gates and sort MS out!
