Windows 10 users, HEADS UP!
System restore isn't active in Winows 10. You've got to go turn it on (search restore point and go turn it on from there).
Also...
Windows 10 has F8 turned off by default. I didn't know that until today. That's important. It's F8 that lets you restart in safe mode if anything happens to your computer. Without those 2 options, you're pretty sunk.
It's not hopeless. You can still buy or burn a boot drive and get into safe mode that way, but it's a real pain in the ass for you.
So.
Windows 10 peeps, go turn on System restore.
Create a restore point.
Go turn your F8 on.
Spare yourselves some heartbreak later.
