HP Laptop - 15s-eq0132au
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hey! I am resetting my HP Laptop - 15s-eq0132au to have a fresh start again. I am not cleaning the drives, just removing everything from all partitions and Cloud Install options in Windows Reset Options. Will the drivers, softwares that came pre installed with my PC remain in my PC after the reset?

What do you mean "fresh start again" ? Normally reset using fresh install Windows, it will clear all drivers. You can keep user files/data and applications. The process will install nearly all CURRENT available drivers for you. You have to find some odd drivers for you after refresh Windows.

 

Regards.
