Factory Resetting Dell Laptop

    Hey all.

    I have an old Dell work laptop that i would like to get up and running again. I don't know the password to it anymore and i don't need any data from it. I'd like to factory reset it if possible so i can start fresh.

    I've not done this before so just want to make sure i know the process. Is it best to purchase a new activation key i.e. https://www.gamers-outlet.net/en/bu...=GBP&msclkid=b3934a4f7e2514843650222745ad3c99

    Then i download it to a USB, navigate to boot via USB by spamming shift or F11 or whatever it is on startup and then it will wipe everything and go through setup. Is that right?

    Thanks in advance
