Always include PC model and version of Windows in your posts.
If you did a refresh, hubby is going to have to reinstall all his apps. A Win 10 refresh -for example- only keeps personal files and settings, apps that came pre-installed on the PC, and apps installed from the Windows Store.
Everything else is gone, unless you have a recent backup image made with software like Acronis or Macrium. BUT you'll need to back up the personal files you created since the last backup because they won't be in the last complete backup image and will be lost if you revert to that backup image...
