Does anyone know how to completely delete everything off a computer? I'm talking all downloaded programs, all history, everything. I want it to be like a brand new out of the box computer. Please Help! :D

You do realize that doing this will delete all your progams, all your email addresses, everything! Why do you want to do this?

Oh.. it would delete my email addresses? That's odd. I didn't think it would do that! Someone did it for me before but no longer live around me, and it only deleted my programs... not my screen names or email addresses. I want to speed up my computer

The link below should help you to understand what to delete and what not to. If you delete everything your PC won't run.

Thanks for coming along M, the only think I know how to do is completely erase everything, that's why I asked the OP why. ;)

OP, you're in good hands, M knows his computer stuff. :)
