I have a toshiba laptop, windows 8. I am trying to do a factory reset of my laptop.
However, once I proceed through the advanced options screen and select next for a reset I come to a blue screen with the words "Reset your PC" and below it please wait. The little white-dot circle keeps running but nothing is happening and it is not proceeding past this screen. Is it usual for this to take a little while? Should I be worried once it passes a certain time?

Thank you

Hi 'windows89', welcome to Windows EightForums! :)

Let it do its thing. I had one take 3½ hours. DO NOT abort anything!
