Diagnostics tab: The Diagnostics tool is designed for use by IT professionals. It is not likely you will need to use this tool. When you select devices from the Diagnostics window then click [Execute], several tests are performed on the selected components.

Recovery tab: The Recovery tab contains the Start Recovery tool. Note that the recovery process erases

all data from the C: drive. If you decide to use the recovery tool, be sure to back up all data that you don’t want to lose. Also note that you must run the system using your AC adapter while running the recovery tool. To use the Recovery tool, select the Start Recovery function, click on the [Execute] button, then follow the instructions on the screen.

Utility tab: The Utility tab contains three tools: System Restore, Hard Disk Data Delete, and Partition Creation.

System Restore can help fix problems that might be making your computer run slowly or stop responding. System Restore enables you in rolling back the system to an earlier restore point, and does not affect any of your documents, pictures, or other personal data.
