Anyway, I removed the keyboard, followed your “nuke” method, and the recovery is now sitting at 32% and counting, hopefully this will do the trick and I can get back to using my new toy, and hopefully it’s more stable.An electronic sign at École centrale de Nantes incorrectly displaying the year 1900 on 3 January 2000 I had the keyboard connected, so I’m not sure if that was part of the problem.

Small apps too, like a couple of MBs, and I have fast internet…So I thought I’d reset and see if that helped.Īfter kicking it off, it got to 31% quite quickly and I let it sit there for 4 hours before concluding something was wrong. I choose the SP4 because I have 3 iPad’s in the house, wanted a change, and within 3 days of having my SP4, I’m wanting to factory reset it as it was just soo buggy, it would hang, apps would randomly close, (free) apps would just not install from the app store, it would just say “starting downloading” or something like that, and just not do anything. I wanted a tablet with a bigger screen, so it was either the 12.9″ iPad Pro, or a Surface Pro 4. Even i was totally disappointed, which is sad, because the hardware really feels fabulous and the promise to run pretty much anything on this thing is great. But i wonder how an average user would react to such a bad first experience. I needed to reset my Surface because i bound it to the wrong account.

Use it to boot your surface (press volume down, hold it, than power on).Download the recovery image for your device and create an USB stick like described.If you reset your Microsoft Surface Pro 4 to factory defaults for whatever reasons you might end up like me: In an endless boot loop or the reset process being stuck at 7% (or, if you choose to erase everything, at 31%), this solution worked for me:
