it can, but the process is a bit weird.

I tried the USB creator on the surface pro, but I got an error message saying something like "You can't do this". Not very helpful of MS.

So, a recovery stick cannot be used to recreate Windows on SP4?

The way the surface pro works it does not have a normal installation. However you can use the recovery tool in windows or download a USB creator from Ms.

I have installed Ubuntu 18.04 alongside Windows 10 on my Surface Pro 4 and it works pretty much as advertised. Only the cameras are not working. Sleep also does not work, but hibernate does, so no sleeping for this SP 4, just hibernation.

My question is, if I reinstall Ubuntu and wipe out Windows, can I recover Windows with my Windows 10 rescue usb stick? Do I need something else to recover Windows 10 for a fresh install?

Thanks!
