Hard reset - Will I loose my apps purchases?

WPCentral Question

Hi

If I were to hard reset my phone, will I loose any app purchases I bought previously and have to re-buy them?

You will lose all the apps and data. But after the hard reset you'll be able to download the apps again for free (if you already bought them before). Keep in mind that you must use the same Microsoft account since those are tied to your account

I'd add the caveat that as long as they're still available in the store you'll be able to download them again for free. If it's been pulled (like some Xbox games, for example), you're out of luck.
