System Recovery (Restore your laptop operating system)

When something is going wrong with the laptop operating system, the storage of the laptop has 

a hidden partition containing a full back up image of the operating system that can be used to 
restore the system to factory default settings.

Caution

Once  the  “Recovery”  is  selected,  your  personal 

data and files will be deleted after the laptop starts 

restoring, and the operating system will be reset to 

factory default settings.

The recovery will be activated and you will see the option 
buttons on the window. Click on “Recovery” to start it.

All ready to go

Make sure your PC is plugged in. This will take a few minutes.
