Using the Rescue and Recovery workspace

The Rescue and Recovery workspace resides in a protected, hidden area of your hard disk 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 or from a backup: The Rescue and Recovery workspace enables you to locate files on your hard disk 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 also can rescue individual files from a Rescue and Recovery backup located on your local hard disk, a USB device, or a network drive.

vRestore your hard disk from Rescue and Recovery backup: Once 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 Windows.

vRestore your hard disk to the factory contents: The Rescue and Recovery workspace enables you to restore the complete contents of your hard disk to the same state as it was when originally shipped from the factory. If you have multiple partitions on your hard disk, 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 Windows.

Attention: If you restore the hard disk from a Rescue and Recovery backup or restore the hard disk to the factory contents, all files on the primary hard disk partition (usually drive C) will be deleted in the recovery process. If possible, make copies of important files. If you are unable to start Windows, you can use the Rescue files feature in the Rescue and Recovery workspace to copy files from your hard disk to other media.

To start the Rescue and Recovery workspace, do the following:

1.Turn off your computer.

2.Restart your computer.

3.Repeatedly press and release F11.

4.When you hear beeps or see a logo screen, release F11.

5.If you set a Rescue and Recovery password, type your password when prompted. The Rescue and Recovery workspace opens after a short delay.
