Default Deleting all files butmy keeping windows 8

I've tried google, and microsoft support on the phone, they were suppossed to send me an email but haven't yet.

I want to delete all my files so when I sell my laptop it has just a fresh install of 8 on there.

I did try and use the upgrade assistant again, but it said it wasn't available in this country now

Anyone got any ideas?

It's supposed to be easy in Windows 8

Hold Windows key and hit I. Then click the Change PC Settings option. Click on the General Tab and then choose the Get Started button under "Remove Everything and Re-Install Windows".

I've never tried it though
