# :material-emoticon-cry: Reverting Atlas

As Atlas disables the 'Reset this PC' feature due to its unreliability and not being a true reinstall of Windows, some users get confused about how to get back to stock Windows.
10+
11+
This page details how to reinstall from Atlas to stock Windows fully, which uninstalls Atlas.
12+
13+
## :material-handshake: Before uninstalling
14+
15+
If you're experiencing issues, ensure you're on the [latest version of Atlas](installation.md), and then consider getting help from the following:
16+
17+
- :material-file-search: The documentation you're on currently
18+
- <a onclick="clickKapaAi();" href="javascript:void(0)">
19+
:material-robot: 'Ask AI' in the corner of this page

22+
- [:material-forum: The Atlas forums](https://forum.atlasos.net)
23+
24+
### If you're still having problems...
25+
26+
We're constantly improving Atlas, so although you're uninstalling now, we hope to see your problem solved in the future.
27+
28+
Please consider reporting your problem on the [Atlas GitHub Issues](https://github.com/Atlas-OS/Atlas/issues) so we can fix it.
29+
Alternatively, give feedback in our forums or Discord, as mentioned earlier.
