Recovery - 19

ECOVERY

If you are having trouble with your computer, and the frequently asked
questions (

see Got a question? on page 53

) do not help, you can

recover your computer.
This section describes the recovery tools available on your computer.
Acer provides

Acer Care Center

, which allows you to reset your PC,

refresh your PC, or create a factory default backup.

Creating a factory default backup

Backup allows you to quickly and easily back up your operating
system, installed apps and data.
1. From

Start

, select

All apps

then

Acer

. Select

Acer Recovery

Management

in the list of Acer apps.

Note

Acer Care Center is only available with a pre-installed Windows operating
system.

Important

We recommend that you create a Factory Default Backup as soon as
possible. In certain situations a full recovery will require a USB
recovery backup.

Note

Since the recovery backup requires at least 8

GB of storage after formatting,

it is recommended to use a USB drive with a capacity of 16

GB or larger.
