Make sure you back up first because it is a destructive restore

””To use PC Restore:

1 Turn on the computer. During the boot process, a blue bar with www.dell.com appears at the top of the screen.

2 Immediately upon seeing the blue bar, press CTRL-F11. If you do not press in time, let the computer finish restarting, and then restart the computer again.”’
