Performing a recovery

NOTE: You can only recover files that you have previously backed up. HP recommends that you use HP Backup and Recovery Manager to create an entire drive backup as soon as you set up your computer.

HP Backup and Recovery Manager helps you with the following tasks for safeguarding your information and restoring it in case of a system failure:

●Recovering important files—This feature helps you reinstall important files without performing a full system recovery.

●Performing a full system recovery—With HP Backup and Recovery Manager, you can recover your full factory image if you experience system failure or instability. HP Backup and Recovery Manager works from a dedicated recovery partition on the hard drive or from recovery discs you create.
