I am using a Windows 8 laptop since past 6 months and had a huge list of applications installed including Adobe CS6, CoralDraw and many such heavy applications which i use as per my profession. Since past few weeks my system was working slow. To speed it up i dig out settings and found two options, one was "Factory Reset" and Second was "Refresh".
As i know Factory reset will delete everything from system (atleast from C partition) and bring the laptop to the factory state, hence i choose "Refresh" assuming it will just clean up unwanted files and speed up the system. As this is the first time i saw this option, i was not aware of what it does.
I allowed the system to refresh but this was a huge mistake. It deleted all my installed applications just like the Factory Reset do. Damn. There were so many applications whose CDs are now no more with me. Is there any way i can revert this changes back? Please help.
