[Troubleshooting] MSI system restore continues even when selecting to cancel the restore process.
LastUpdate : Thu, 02 Feb 2023
Answer
When restoring MSI factory settings for the second time without completing Windows Out-of-box experience (OOBE) settings, the restoration procedure may not be terminated after selecting "No" during the confirmation process.
This condition only applies to MSI Notebooks with pre-installed systems and the user has performed twice or more times of MSI factory system restoration.
It's suggested to run the patch file on your system to avoid future accidental selection of the system restores and wiping out the entire system.
*The process will be complete in the background without popping up any notification.
