    this is definitely helpful for users trying to fix system issues without immediately losing data. I’ve noticed even with the “keep my files” option, there are cases where some files can still go missing, especially if the system is already unsuitable. In such situations, it’s always safer to have a backup . A quick data recovery step before resetting can save a lot of trouble late.
