system.
2. The product on the recovery media may be used only for the following purposes:
• Restore the product preinstalled on your computer
• Reinstall the product
• Modify the product using the Additional Files
Creating and using recovery media
Recovery media enable you to restore the hard disk drive to the factory default settings. Recovery media
are useful if you transfer the computer to another area, sell the computer, recycle the computer, or put the
computer in an operational state after all other methods of recovery have failed. As a precautionary measure,
it is important to create recovery media as soon as possible.
Note:
The recovery operations you can perform using recovery media vary depending on the operating
system from which they are created. Your Microsoft Windows license permits you to create only one data
medium, so it is important that you store the created recovery medium in a safe place.
