Hi, please can someone tell me ,in easy terms lol,how to get rid of all my stuff on laptop to sell it. I've put photos onto stick but that's it
Doesn't everything go in the r bin so it's still accessible?
Thanks
It will be going to a family member which is slightly better but still all my passwords are saved in it etc

    Anything left in the recycle bin can be recycled, but it's assumed that you'd bother to empty it first?
    Back up your data and then do a Factory Restore. Since you haven't stated the make or model, difficult to give much more specific advice.

    Or look in the manual which you can download from the Toshiba support site.
