No, that's unlikely.

I've tried many ways like using the sfc and dism command and on going to my final decision on going back from windows 11 to windows 10 but the only way I can reset my laptop is through using a USB. this is very weird considering I cannot reset my asus laptop through the normal reseting process. what kind of issue could this be? and is there a way to fix the issue to allow me to reset through settings without having to use a USB.

If your C Drive is running low on space, or if you have moved your user profile folder to a drive that's not C:, or if your recovery partiton or if the image reset needs is corrupted, it can usually lead to reset failure.

What are the status of the important files (backed up, not backed up, no important files)?
