How to restore to factory settings?

Hello

I need to restore the phone to factory settings which is Windows Vista, but all I have is the disk that came with the laptop that says recovery product for windows xp.
The backup system is disabled and the system restore did not resolve the issue.

Can someone tell me how to go back to the default settings with vista?

Can you please tell us which model of laptop you have exactly? I presume that the Vista recovery image is saved on the HARD drive. Usually, it is saved on the second partition in folder HDDRecovery.

Please check this box.

    Hi stab them.

    I think that I n the new good t for you: restore factory settings without Toshiba recovery disc isn t possible in your case! :(

    First of all I think it's normal to s no recovery disk is delivered with the laptop as you will need to create them yourself using the Toshiba recovery disc creator. That is why it s recommended using high quality as Verbatim DVD-R media.

    I think that the only option to recover to factory settings is to order a new Toshiba recovery disc.
    https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

    I put t understand why you didn't create this disk, because after the first boot, if you shut down the computer area, you get the following message:
    + Important INFORMATION +.

  • How to restore partition factory settings after installing Win 7 Professional and after having lost everything as a result.

    I have a netbook with a partition that has win7 starter installed.  I unfortunately poorly installed windows 7 Professional and now have nothing available which was originally on the computer.  Everything was wiped clean including my ability to use / access my wireless, ethernet controller, pci, etc..  I tried repeatedly to recover the partition back to factory settings, but it won't give me the option to select the partition.  I guess that's because they are all two Windows 7.  Can you help me get it back to windows 7 edition starter of the partition so I can restore all the factory settings and programs.  I haven't lost any information or files that I loaded win7professtional as soon as I turned it on.  I have restore points, images, etc.

    When I installed Win 7 Professional, not old Info windows.old file but I don't know how to access that is.

    If you don't need either of these two options can delete the Windows.old folder. In your case if you can access the "recovery Partition" to restore the windows and then back the Windows.old folder before you begin.

    Note: Option to change Windows Explorer to see the Windows.old folder:

    Click on the "Show the hidden files and folders" option at the top of the list.
    In the "Folder Options" window
    Click the 'view' if it is not already selected.

  • Equium A210-17I - how to restore to factory settings?

    I want to restore my system to the factory systems but I don't have a disc. So how do we do it without having a?

    If you didn t get recovery disk your laptop probably shipped with HDD recovery option and all the info on this you will find in the document s user manuals. To be honest I m wondering you didn t pick up some info on cell phone you have.

    In any case, try to run the recovery procedure of HARD drive following the instructions in http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm

    If this does not work, you have a big problem. Please inform us if HDD recovery works or not.

    Hello

    305 X seems to be equipped with HARD drive recovery option and so it was not shipped with the recovery DVD.
    But I have an opportunity to create this disc. If you had read the user manual (Chapter 1 HDD recovery Utilities) you will find the info how to create this diskette.

    _It said: _
    1) click Start, all programs, Toshiba, recovery, then Recovery Disc Creator.
    (2) select DVD (to create a recovery on DVD media).
    (3) select the items to copy by clicking on the check box beside files recovery point s name, applications (applications and drivers delivered original), or the recovery of files and applications.
    (4) click on create.
    (5) Insert the first blank DVD into your writable optical drive when you are prompted.
    (6) follow the prompts on the screen to complete the copy process.

    To retrieve your hard drive using the utilities stored on your computer s HARD drive:
    (1) make sure that the computer is turned off.
    (2) press on and hold the value 0 (zero) key on your keyboard all turn on/off the computer.

    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:

  • the last IOS installation froze my iphone 6 and iTunes says that it needs to be restored to factory settings.

    You will get the option to "update" only when force you it into recovery mode. you might get lucky. If you cannot update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

    If she needs a complete restoration to factory settings then get what you can from iCloud and all other internet accounts that you use.

    Synchronize what you can save on your computer also.

    You can re - download apps etc for free, but if you do not have a return to the top, then you can only look at the expensive data recovery options

    If you do not have to restore as new then make sure to run iCloud back ups or regularly back up on iTunes before you do updates in the future.

  • I can well picked up a carrier locked iPhone 5 that has been restored to factory settings?

    Hello

    I hope to trade in my old iPhone 5 (I currently use a 5s) either finance or credit of the store to an iPhone SE.

    However, the situation with my iPhone 5 is complicated.

    • It was bought by my father's business (I used to work there).
    • It is carrier locked to Vodafone (UK network), but I currently reside in Chicago.
    • When I got my 5s I'm from carrier, but kept my old number - so I did not have a Vodafone SIM.
    • My brother used my 5 for awhile. He gave me back restored to factory settings.
    • I can not set up because I do not have a Vodafone SIM.

    In these circumstances, may I take it to an Apple Store to trade it?

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    But if you can prove that you are the legal owner of the phone (as opposed to the Affairs of your dad) so you should be clear
