More details about “Start Fresh” in the new Windows 10 beta build 14367

It isn’t a Windows feature. It’s a link to a Microsoft Answers forum post. And there’s a big reason why you probably want to use “Start Fresh” instead of a Refresh with “Remove everything.”

Trivia: Just noticed that my chapter on refresh in Windows 10 All-In-One For Dummies first edition is called “Book 8 Chapter 2: A Fresh Start”

I’m working hard – as in nose to the grindstone – on the second edition, with significant changes for the Anniversary edition of Win10, version 1607.

It’s rolling out right now.

The only worthwhile announced change is the appearance of a “Fresh Start” option. I have no idea if it’s a substantial improvement over the current Reset/Refresh/Recycle/Reuse/Repeat option.

Look for a post on InfoWorld in the morning.
