Using the Rescue and Recovery workspace

The Rescue and Recovery workspace resides in a protected, hidden area of your hard disk drive that operates independently from the Windows operating system. This enables you to perform recovery operations even if the Windows operating system cannot be started. You can perform the following recovery operations from the Rescue and Recovery workspace:

vRescue files from your hard disk drive or from a backup: The Rescue and Recovery workspace enables you to locate files on your hard disk drive and transfer them to a network drive or other recordable media, such as a USB hard disk drive or a diskette. This solution is available, even if you did not back up your files or if changes were made to the files since your last backup operation. You can also rescue individual files from a Rescue and Recovery backup located on your local hard disk drive, a USB device, or a network drive.

vRestore your hard disk drive from a Rescue and Recovery backup: When you perform a backup operation using the Rescue and Recovery program, you can perform restore operations from the Rescue and Recovery workspace, even if you cannot start the Windows operating system.

vRestore your hard disk drive to the factory contents: The Rescue and Recovery workspace enables you to restore the complete contents of your hard disk drive to the same state as it was when originally shipped from the factory. If you have multiple partitions on your hard disk drive, you have the option to restore the factory contents to the C: partition and leave the other partitions intact. Because the Rescue and Recovery workspace operates independently from the Windows operating system, you can restore the factory contents even if you cannot start the Windows operating system.
