Latest news on Windows 8 is that it will include a reset and refresh button. The reset button will set your computer to the state it was when it was just installed. The refresh button will restore the Windows install to the out of the box state whilst keeping all of your documents and personally installed computer programs intact.

This is great news for anyone who is involved in computer support and also anyone who needs to have their computers supported as it should speed up the resolution time to get a computer from broken to working and less time spent fixing computers means savings for everyone.

One great use of the reset button for anyone looking to sell a computer or pass it on to another department is you just have to click the reset and your computer will be at a working state without all of your sensitive data on it.

Word of advice though don’t get reset and refresh mixed up.
