How do I factory reset my Lenovo ThinkPad?

Press the "F11" key after the ThinkPad Recovery Menu appears. Enable the "Restore Factory Defaults" option and follow the on-screen instructions to reinstall and customize your Windows operating system. The restore process also reinstalls other third-party software included on the computer when you first purchased it.

  1. For laptops with an internal battery (not removable), use the pin hole reset.
    Laptops with an internal battery may have an emergency pin hole reset button on the bottom cover (see emergency-reset hole in the User Guide for more information).
    Use a straightened paper clip in the reset hole to reset the laptop.
