• How can I restore my factory settings.i deleted my recovery files

  "How can I restore my laptop compaq presario cq57 windows computer factory settings 7", I deleted my recovery files.

  Hello

  If you have deleted the recovery Partition, you will not be able to create your own set of recovery disks, then you will need to order a replacement, set as described in my previous post.

  If you use these replacement disks to reinstall the operating system, they will also recreate the hard disk recovery Partition - this will allow to use the 'method f11' reinstall Windows if you wish.

  Kind regards

• 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 restore to factory of my computer?

  I want to start with my cmputer but I do not know how to reset.

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the 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.

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

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the 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.

• 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.

  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.

  Restoring to factory settings formats the disc, and which erases
  everything what he. You probably get something new, but you can
  try to do a search on the web for a recovery program that unformats the reader
  like here: http://www.easeus.com/resource/unformat.htm

  If you unformat the drive successfully and can recover lost files
  back, the first thing you should do copy on an external
  (CD, DVD, USB sticks, external hard drives, etc.).
  Two other points/questions:

  1. why restore you to the factory settings? This is usually the worst
  approach to solve a problem, there's a lot of extra long hard
  work and often leads to problems of its own (as it did here).

  2. I assume you have no backup on external media from your
  photos of important files etc. In this case. you played with
  the fire. You can read this article on the backup that I wrote:

  You will need to go on the manufacturer of your pc and then ask for a windows xp disk and drivers. This will give you a new copy, but not out of the box state. For an out of the box, get a recovery disk. Just answer what you want.
