It's important to know what a factory reset actually does, though. It puts all applications back into their original state and removes anything that wasn't there when the computer left the factory. That means user data from the applications will also be deleted. However, that data will still live on the hard drive.

Q1: Is it OK to factory reset a laptop?
Factory resets help to fix large application errors or issues with the operating system. They can even help re-establish a strong connection between the hardware and BIOS, making the computer perform as fast and stably as it did when it left the factory.

Q2: Is it worth factory resetting PC?
Resetting the pc does not make it faster. It simply frees extra space in your hard drive and deletes some third party softwares. Due to this the pc runs more smoothly. But over the time when you again install the softwares and fill your hard drive, functioning again goes back to what it was.
