Windows 8 ‘System Reset’ Screenshot Leaks

In a malware environment, most malware will hijack the exe extension association in the registry and seeing that the system reset button will SURELY be a maximum elevation operation, I don't think consent.exe will be triggered to run the system reset although it would probably work in safe mode... But how many eu's know to use safe mode to run tools other than telling a tech "but it boots into safe mode"?

Thats only because it says safe mode right there.......... I have gotten alot of calls that they have said
Them:"My computer screen just got smaller...."
Me: "Can you explain to me what smaller means please?"
Them: "All the ICONS are way to big"
Me: "Does it say safe mode anywhere on the screen"
Them: "Yes it does........ what does that mean?"
