I've been trying to reinstall Windows 11 using the built-in reset feature, but it got stuck at 100% for about 45 minutes. After waiting, I decided to restart my laptop, but it just booted back into Windows 11, leaving me feeling like I wasted three hours. I'm looking for a way to safely reinstall Windows on my laptop without running into problems again, and I want to make sure my Windows activation stays intact. Should I just try using the reset tool again and hope it works this time? I can provide more context if needed!

Thanks for the suggestion! I do have a USB lying around. Do you think I can use the Windows Media Creation Tool on the same laptop? Or if I reset again, is it likely that the 100% hang issue will happen again?
You might want to consider resetting again, but creating a bootable USB could be a better option. Look up the Windows Media Creation Tool; it’s super easy to use. Just a heads-up, as long as your Windows copy is currently activated, it should stay activated no matter how you reinstall it.
Just a tip: before making any system changes like this, it’s always wise to back up your data. It can help avoid potential data loss during the installation process. Good luck!
