System restore Windows with Ubuntu dual boot

fixit_fiona

I currently have dual boot with Windows 10 and Ubuntu on different partitions. If I were to do a system restore on Windows 10 where I pick the option to delete all files, will the dual boot (Ubuntu partitions) be affected?

Great question — answering as the UphillTech team:

No, it should not affect the Ubuntu partition as it is concerned just with Windows. I always myself have good backups in case there is an issue, but there should not be. Windows restores and repairs itself if possible (mostly is) without formatting and so without issue to other partitions.
