Creating recovery media and backups

Recovery after a system failure is only as good as your most recent backup.

1.After you successfully set up the computer, create recovery media. This step creates a backup of the recovery partition on the computer. The backup can be used to reinstall the original operating system in cases where the hard drive is corrupted or has been replaced.

You will use a USB flash drive to create a bootable recovery drive that can be used to troubleshoot a computer that is unable to start. The USB flash drive can be used to reinstall the original operating system and the programs that were installed at the factory.

NOTE: Any information on the USB flash drive will be erased before the recovery media is created.

●To create the Windows 8.1 recovery media, from the Start screen, type recovery drive, then click on Create a recovery drive. Follow the on-screen instructions to continue.

●To create the Windows 8 recovery media, from the Start screen, type recovery drive, and

then click on Settings, then click on Create a recovery drive. Follow the on-screen instructions to continue.

2.Use the Windows tools to create system restore points and create backups of personal information. For more information and steps, see Help and Support. From the Start screen, type help, and then select Help and Support.
