It is important to create a rescue medium and a set of recovery media as early as possible and store them
in a safe place for future use.
Recovery overview for the Windows 10 operating system
The Windows recovery programs enable you to reset your computer or use advanced startup options.
It is recommended that you create a recovery USB drive as early as possible. Store the recovery USB drive
as a backup or replacement for the Windows recovery programs.
For more information, see “Creating and using a recovery USB drive” on page 115.
