• Creation of recovery media after upgrade to 8.1 Windows

  My computer is a year old and came with 64 bit Windows 8 Pro. I did my recovery media.  Then, they offered an upgrade to a 8.1 free Pro 64-bit.  I took this.  You cannot use the recovery media HP App again to make a floppy of 8.1.  I went online to try to do and could do it, but I only have my OEM # put in and who doesn't.  Download not free any # is product key came with version 8.1.  I tried to use the product key provided with your computer, Windows 8, and it did not work.   How can you now create recovery media for the free Windows 8.1 that has no new product key?  I can retrieve only to Windows 8.  How worthless is that?

  Hi sandnurse,

  You are absolutely right.

  Microsoft will not allow the creation of a Win 8.1 installation disc using a product key to win 8.

  You can buy a disc installation Win 8.1 OEM or retail.

• 500 - 81ea: create recovery media after upgrade to windows 10

  I created a USB recovery when I used my PC (using the 8.1 window)

  I had a time to use it to perform a destructive restore but then had to wait for all the upgrades automatically install to get me back to where I was and of course all my other software such as iTunes and music, photos, etc.  Checking to see if I can upgrade to windows 10 I was informed that my windows was not up to date and that I didn't know the logo windows at the bottom right of the screen. I have now been in the screen of windows update and installed quite a few updates and now have the upgrade of windows application.  My question is if I upgrade to windows 10 and then must perform a full recovery can I do new media of recovery or I'll have to go back to windows 8.1 using my existing media and then updateHP software and windows 8.1 and upgrade to windows 10 and the free update will be always available or is there a way I can create new media recovery to allow me to recover Windows 10 OR an altrnative goes back to the creation of a backup drive on an external hard drive and a way to get this image on my HDD internal. OR to simply stick with windows 8.1 and hope, that it is taken in charge as long as XP was.

  THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY HELP

  Hello

  First things first. Don't forget that your USB stick recovery is the HP external recovery media and not just another type of recovery image. Back up your data. Check that your PC is supported by HP for Windows 10 and that your PC meets the requirements of Windows 10. If so, then be sure your Windows 8.1 system is fully patched and up-to-date with Windows and HP implemented to date.  When you make an in place upgrade W10, W10 process will have a roll back feature that will be available in case you are not happy with the W10.  I made a couple of back roller and the process was pretty quick.

• Stream7 create a recovery media after upgrade to win10

  unboxed my stream7 a few days earlier and let it update and got the 'time to get win10' icon in the systray.  I created win8.1 media restoration until I take the not... so I can go back to a clean win8... because I have now about free 3.5gig after the upgrade on mem drive.  (it's why I want create recovery win10 media... I have none left of disk space!)

  In any case, when I try to create a restoration of win10 disc... I select the check box for the system files and it works a little butthen I get this cryptic message on the screen and a button 'Finish'... but no recovery drive.  If I do not select the system files, it will erase the disk and copy data to it, but this isn't a recovery disk... There is no need to re install win10.  This is win8.1bing, so I can't use the creator of media 10 victory as I have no key... I have to use the recovery media.

  any ideas?  I really like win10, but I need my space rear disc and I want to get rid of all the win8.1 on the driv cruft.

  Thank you.

  To answer my own post... Apparently, simply wait 12 hours. (He was not an update, at least I think... I got the auto update service stopped and the Tablet off all night)
  
  When I tried again this morning... It took about 2 hours, but he had completed the restoration of the road. Another 2 hours and it increased by win10 running, but the screen would not rotate automatically. The fix for that float around these forums. Basically you reinstall the driver win8.1 for HP accelerometer. And boom, in fact.

• Cannot create recovery media after installing the SSD on Pavilion TS 11-e100

  Hello

  I just replaced the SSD HARD drive and tried to make a USB support of recovery through 8.1 recovery utility. The process takes strangely little time, but finishes normally have reported that the media are created. The size of all the files on the flash is about 200 MB. When I made the same support with disk size was 12 GB. I tried to start with than flash and it failed with a message on a damaged or similar medium. I always thought that windows does not take into account the physical structure of the disc and can not understand what is happening and what to do.

  Hello

  I use HP Recovery manager to create a recovery media for my machine ready and my wife. I use another software to clone HARD disks for other machines after any big change for example after moving from Windows 8 to 8.1, I create a clone which means I can't do it again, simply restore it back. Use a software called O & O DiskImage clone but the following free software can do the job:

  PS I tested once the 3rd software, it's ok

• model 550-223w: cannot download the recovery media after upgrade Windows 8.1 for Windows 10

  For some reason any warranty start date is also may 5, 2015 instead of the date that I registered the computer with HP.  How can I change the start date?

• Satellite U500-10F - creating recovery disk after upgrade Windows 7

  I bought a Satellite U500-10th with Vista OS and I decided to upgrade to Windows 7, so I ordered at Toshiba upgrade disk and installed it.

  * My question is *: * it is possible to create with Windows 7 recovery discs? * in order to avoid the downside to install vista first then do the upgrade to windows 7

  Whenever I need to do a clean install and also to avoid the disadvantage that it is not too recommended to validate windows whenever you perform a clean installation, because the problems of authenticity can emerge with microsoft!

  Thank you

  Hi m.tarek,

  I doubt that this would be possible. First of all, you have ordered only an upgrade, which means that this version can be installed on a pre-installed version of Vista. It is not a full version that you can install without BONES.

  Besides recovering the files on the second partition (btw, that's a picture) contains the Vista operating system and not Windows 7. It does not update.

  Sorry mate, but this is why there will always be this update of s. Alternative, you can create your own image using Acronis True Image or other imaging software.

  Official response with the support of HP on twitter:

  Try to use the tool of media recovery. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/create-usb-recovery-drive. The USB has a boot device.

  .. who has worked on the same USB stick 32 GB .  BUT it is not the same as in the HP Recovery Manager.

  Don't bother more. I accept the foregoing as a solution.

  Good luck with users who have this laptop. Also issues with the network adapter to which I am trying to fix at the moment.

• VAIO SVS13A290X cannot create recovery media

  Hello everyone!

  I have just bought a SVS13A290X, win 8, vaio care 8. Just after I tried to create recovery media, but I couldn't.

  There is no possibility to do in vaio care. He do not have a restore option, but not the option to create a recovery media (sic).

  I went to the Sony esupport site and there is an old video on how to create a recovery media. But it does not match the real software.

  I did all the updates with windows 8 and the sony software and nothing has changed.

  Anyone else had this problem with this model PREMIUN SVS?

  Uninstall and then reinstall vaio care and updating

• HP 15 Notebook - r063tu model: what quality of Flash drive required for creating recovery media for laptop 15 HP (r063tu)?

  I want to create a recovery media for my laptop HP 15 (model r063tu) on a Flash instead of DVD drive (had a bad experience with the DVD in the past). Should I buy a 16 GB or 32 GB of capacity 3.0 USB drive. Because it will only be to create recovery media, obviously I won't be able to use it for other purposes, so want to buy everything as this is sufficient (and save on costs!). Thank you.

  Hello

  32 GB is necessary because the recovery partition is almost always about 20 GB or more.

  (4.7GB//120Min//16X used transonic DVD-R) to create Recovery Media Creator Toshiba recovery disks)

  Try to use TDK or Verbatim DVD-R. I used these empty discs to create recovery discs on several different Toshiba laptops and every time everything was fine.

  It seems crazy, but you may have problems using some some discs.

• Can I create recovery DVDs after installing Windows XP Home edition?

  Hello

  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite L300. I formatted the c drive and installed windows xp, but soon I realized that I forgot to create a recovery disk.
  Now the F8 does not work, but the drive d and hddrecovery the folder that contains the files of Toshiba recovery still exists. 3.8 GB of data is located in this folder.

  Is it possible to create a recovery disk now. Thanks already.

  Hello

  Recovery DVDs can be created with the special tool only. The name is Toshiba Recovery creator. This tool is part of the Vista installation only factory settings.

  So now, you can not create recovery media and there is no way to launch the installation of F8 HARD drive recovery. I do not understand why you ignored Toshiba reminder on creating recovery DVDs.
  Anyway, you can order the new copy under https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

  Bye and good luck!

• Need help with the recovery partition/create recovery media

  HI - first thing I did when I got my thinkpad is a clean install of w7, but then I thought about it and restored the recovery partition, conviniently located at the end of the training, in order to create a backup dvd factory. Thing is, when I click the autorun (lenovoqdrive.exe) and select 'create recovery media', I get an error stating that "program files (x 86) \lenovo\factory recovery\recovburncd.exe" is missing... obviously since the operating system partition was crushed.

  I tried RnR and looked on the software + drivers page and nothing happens as "... \lenovo\factory recovery\" when it is installed. So, where can I download the program that creates the recovery discs?

  (I know possible to restore the operating system of the *.wim file but I want to leave that as a last resort).

  Okay here's what I did to who mightve had the same question: as mentioned earlier, I have restored the partition Q with (your favorite free partition recovery tool), then booted from a usb winpe (with imagex) generated from victory aik (free).

  first I deleted (from winpe boot usb) windoze partition with diskpart and recreated the 2 partitions S & C (and Q is on the left) by hand according to 'recovery.ini' found on q. then I restored S and C 'sdrivebackup.wim' and 'cdrivebackup.wim', respectively, using imagex.exe, which is actually two one liners.

  Finally, I tried the bcd to fixation by hand according to "bcdinfo.txt", also found on Q, but that did not really work... so I just jumped into a bootable win7 USB and he rewrote the bcd by itself (I assume). the last step has been fixing the mbr by using /fixmbr and /fixboot bootrec.exe.

  ATM I started just and afaict it behaves exactly like the first start-up of the plant. see you soon
