If you have made a lot of different changes to the Tobii Dynavox I-13 or I-16 device and would like to start over, perform a Recovery from within Windows. The Tobii Dynavox I-Series uses 100% native Windows 10 recovery/reset functionality.
1. Access the Windows Settings icon from the Windows desktop.
2. Select Updates and Security (you may need to scroll down in the Windows Settings window).
3. Select the Recovery option in the left column.
4. Select the Get Started under the heading of Reset this PC
5. Select one of these options:

  • Keep my files. This option is the most common for our devices and users.
    •  Reinstalls Windows 10 and keeps your personal files.
    • Removes apps and drivers you installed.
    •  Removes changes you made to settings.
    • Removes any apps your PC manufacturer installed. (If your PC came with Windows 10, apps from your PC manufacturer will be reinstalled.)
