Using HP Recovery media, you can choose from one of the following recovery options:

●System Recovery—Reinstalls the original operating system, and then configures the settings for the programs that were installed at the factory.

●Minimized Image Recovery (select models only)—Reinstalls the operating system and all hardware-related drivers and software, but not other software applications.

●Factory Reset—Restores the computer to its original factory state by deleting all information from the hard drive and re-creating the partitions. Then it reinstalls the operating system and the software that was installed at the factory.

The HP Recovery partition (select models only) allows System Recovery and Minimized Image Recovery.
