Answer:

completrly erasing

Step-by-step explanation:

Reformatting a computer means completely erasing (formatting) the hard drive and reinstalling the operating system and all other applications and files. All of your data on the hard disk will be lost, so you will need to back it up to an External HD, DVD, flashdrive or another computer.
