• How can I restore to factory settings?

  I've done it before, and I vaguely remember having to hit one of the keys "F #" at the start of the computer, but I don't remember when or which key to hit. If there is another, easier way to please me say, but I give this computer to my brother and restore it would be the best way to ensure that nothing of mine is here and no problem with him rest of what I could do about it. I really need this answer in the coming days so faster the the best answer. Thanks in advance to one that helps me to solve this problem (easy I guess) problem I have. Oh I'm not sure if it's important, but I use a Dell computer, computer, if I forgot to include any information you may need (Windows Vista on a Dell laptop) just told me.

  How to get Vista recovery Media or the Vista recovery Partition on your computer back to factory settings.

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  Dell recovery options:

  And that way if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• How can I restore to factory without a disc?

  Hey... I don't think I have that much to say to be honest.

  My laptop is just terrible, and I want to restore it to factory settings.

  However, when we received our laptop (who was not with the purchase, but to win a prize) it has not come with a CD. So I can not restore its factory settings.

  Now my problem is that, unlike other products from Dell, the Latitude series does not come with a choice of restore laptop to factory settings is when you press F8 for advanced startup options. So, I have no possible way to restore it to its default value.

  Is there a way I could do? Possible a code of command prompt? I'm not sure. Please help me. My laptop broke down right and it does not work for me any time soon.

  Thank you.             Christian

• How can I reset to factory settings if I formatted the hard drive?

  Hello, so long story short the two drives on my Alienware m17x r4 have been formatted (the 32 GB SSD and HDD of 750 GB). What I didn't realize at the time, was that the image/factory settings are stored somewhere in there. So now, I wonder if I can get a picture of system to factory settings or if there is another way to return to the factory settings? Any help would be appreciated.

  I am running Windows 7 in addition, in the case where what matters.

  If you want to create an image of Win7 or Win8 factory restore use AlienRespawn (all that came pre-installed), you should do so before you installed Windows 10 (and/or your formatted disks). It must have been written to a flash drive and stored in a safe place (not hit).

  Re - install Windows 7 (or 8.1 is similar).
  en.Community.Dell.com/.../19376654

  If you need media of Windows OEM Dell-Alienware to clean-install of Windows, contact Dell.
  www.Dell.com/.../Media

  You can get Windows-10. ISO from Microsoft, or possibly Dell support downloads
  (for your specific Service of some machines label that comes with Win-10 preinstalled).

  My notes:

  Alien-Respawn is simply a version of the Alien on the theme of Dell backup and restore (DBaR)

  dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/.../Dell-Backup-and-Recovery

  It doesn't seem to work correctly under Windows-10.

  www.dell.com/.../EN

  You should now use Win - 10 backup Imaging or a third-party software such as Acronis and Macrium Reflect.

• If I restore to factory settings, do I lose the files?

  my laptop has 50 on drive C and 300 GB on the drive D. apparently I can't use this space in C drive unless I have restore factory settings. If I do this I lose etc that I put on the files?

  You cannot use that space on the C: drive? Do you mean move the
  space on D: to C:?

  If so, two points:

  1. you can move some of the space on D: to C:, but it may require the use
  a third party program.

  2. According to what you want to use the space for, you don't have to
  Move it to C: to use it. Just use on D:

  If I do this I lose etc that I put on the files?

  Yes. Restore factory settings which means everything on the disk
  is deleted.

  But note that your question suggests that you do not have a backup of
  your files. If this is the case, you are playing with fire.  It's
  always possible a disk hard crash, user, near lightning error
  strike, virus attack, even stolen computer, can result in the loss
  everything on your drive. As it has often been said, it is not a question
  to know if you have a problem, but when.

• How can I restore favorites... accidentally deleted the external hard drive!

  I have recently reinstalled Windows and IE8, but before I did, I saved all my files on an external hard drive.  My computer upward and the race and then began to manually recover my files from my hard drive.  Thinking that I had recovered everything what I needed/wanted, I then deleted everything on my external hard drive.  Unfortunately, I forgot to copy my favorites on my computer!

  Is it possible that I can get back my (old) Favorites from a previous installation of WIndows on my computer?

  In addition, in recent days, I have placed thousands of files in the Recycle Bin and have deleted however, I've heard that the files that are deleted in a computer can be recovered, but I don't know how to do this.  My old favorites would be there somewhere?

  You can also to the above questions, Microsoft stores my old favorites anywhere in their system as my username/password?  If there is anyway to recover my old favorites, I of course would like to learn to do this, because at the moment, I have no basics!  Well sad really. I should have been paying attention to what I was doing!

  Hi Arlywig,

  Once removed the HDD data can't be recovered. However, you can use your favorite search engine to browse third-party data recovery software and use this software to recover data.

  Note:   software use of third parties, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  Hope this information is useful.

  Hello

  Check their documentation online with Dell Support, and ask in the Dell forums.

  You should be able to return it back to out of the box which will remove all programs and State data.
  If there is no problem doing that Dell can sell you the installation of Windows Media cheap since you
  Already own Windows.
