Hi, came across a problem on my travels last week and was wondering if anyone had a solution for this?
when out to a computer where the computer would boot into windows, but start and any other modern app wouldn't work. as a result i couldn't access the options to refresh / reset within the OS.
so i decided to try and boot to setup using a USB key created with the media creation tool. But when attempting to perform the refresh i got the error ' the drive is locked'
system restore wouldn't work either, nor would reset.
in the end i did a backup / reload the 'traditional' way. but would be interested in resolving this so when i inevitably come across an issue where i need to refresh off a key I can do
thanks!
