Is it possible to recreate the recovery partition?

I have this satellite plu pro which used to have as usual, a recovery partition on the HARD disk to restore to factory settings. I created a backup disk (in fact, I created it on a USB key) using the Toshiba backup disc authoring program then wiped the drive HARD clean, including the recovery partition. I have come to the point now, but where it would be useful to have that DOS partition and I wonder if it is possible to restore it to how it was originally?

On the top of my head, I thought that maybe all I would need to do was wipe the HARD drive again, he re-partition, and then create a new partition, call the recovery and then simply copy the content of the key USB/disk backup for this partition. It would even work, or I have to do anything in particular. Assuming that it is even possible with this method?

Thank you!

Hello

You can't do anything manually. If you want to have "initial state" again only thing to do is to reinstall the original recovery image using a created recovery media.

Before installing recovery image starts the disk HARD integer will be removed, new partitions created recovery image is copied on the HARD disk and as final step recovery image is installed.
Recovery of installation image and you will have "factory settings" again.

    That's what does_removes put in shape all the files. You burn your set of recovery disks? If so, you can start their relocation back to factory specifications that will recreate the recovery partition. Please note that this format the entire hard drive, which means that you save the files, photos, etc. before the race. If you burn your recovery DVD set, that you can order from HP for about $20.

    Yes, it ' s possible to delete the recovery hard drive and very easy to do in partitioning, formatting and etc. Once I had an experience to remove it, but in my hp laptop. I recommend you do the following:

    1. contact the Toshiba service authorized in your country or order https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx
    2. find (buy) a copy of Windows, install and drivers downloaded from the Toshiba driver page.

  • G62 - 219CA: possibility to backup/clone recovery Partition just before installing the new SSD?

    I can sort of back up or clone JUST the recovery partition, so when I install the new SSD I can put back them there and have this convenience for later use?

    I can't close my b/c the entire hard drive SSD will be too small in relation to the original drive.

    Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    It is not really possible to save or to clone the recovery partition. Your best option is to create the support of HP recovery using the Recovery Manager or to order HP media to DVD - Windows 7 64B doublespeak (Office 2010) + Supp 1 Recovery Kit.

  • Format HARD drive, delete the recovery partition and recover with disc

    Hello

    I have a laptop Satellite C660D-17F and want to format my HDD, remove the recovery partition and recover the preinstalled Windows 7 and other software. I don't want to keep my own data, which are all stored already, I just want to be sure I can safely restore preinstalled stuff. I have a few questions that I need help to clear up before I go ahead.

    Am I right in thinking the dvd recovery disc I made when I got to my laptop has all the software and drivers that I need on this subject, the same that would have the recovery partition? If I do another room to spare in now just to be sure only will they have the out-of-box default stuff: OS, software and drivers on any of my data?

    I found [this post | http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/items/faq/71] which explains the recovery process. If I select "Erase the hard drive" (so I can wipe my hard drive and delete the recovery partition too) what happens after that? It will restore the OS and the software for the backup of dvd drive? Will the process after that recreate a recovery partition (which I don't)?

    Added SIDENOTE:
    I actually prefer to be able to choose what programs preinstalled settle after that I have format, but I'm guessing that probably isn't possible and will settle for install everything and remove what I'm after. Or is there a way?

    Sorry, I know that was a long post, but I want to be sure of what will happen BEFORE I'll and spoil things! :) If you got this far, thanks for reading. :)

    Hello

    I will try to offer help. ;)
    > Am I right in thinking the dvd recovery disc I made when I got to my laptop has all the software and drivers that I need on this subject, the same that would have the recovery partition?
    Yes. Saved on recovery discs recovery image contains the operating system, all necessary drivers, specific Toshiba and utility tools and some additional software.
    > If I do another room to spare in now just to be sure only will they have the out-of-box default stuff: OS, software and drivers on any of my data?
    Preinstalled Toshiba Recovery creator make recovery disc that includes the recovery image only. It has nothing to do with your personal data.
    > I found this post that explains the process of recovery. If I select "Erase the hard drive" (so I can wipe my hard drive and delete the recovery partition too) what happens after that?
    After that, you should use recovery disks created for the recovery image installation.
    > Will the process after that recreate a recovery partition (which I don't)?
    When you use the recovery disc for your laptop recovery image installation will have factory settings which include the recovery saved on the HARD disk image. To be honest I do not understand why you do not want to have this recovery image on the HARD drive. This allows the installation of recovery using recovery of HARD drive option. But of course you can delete it later for more free space on your HARD drive. Installation image that you can always use created for recovery discs-recovery DVDs.

  • 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

  • HP 450-011: delete the recovery partition after upgrade to win 10?

    I have a new HP 450-011 and it came with Win 8.1 and the recovery with the letter D: drive partition.  I did the upgrade to windows 10.  I made a set of recovery DVD for win installation 8.1.  Is there a reason for me not to delete the D: drive and replace it with my information?  I seriously doubt I'll want to roll back to 8.1 Win.

    Greetings,

    Have you tested the Win 8.1 HP Recovery disks before installing Win 10?

    A question is: If you need technical assistance from HP tech for a possible hardware problem. HP normally requires that the factory installed operating system to take in charge. This policy of HP may have changed during the upgrade to win 10. I do not suspect.

    You can export the recovery, Partition because it will not work now in any case.

    But you need a way to go back to win 8.1 when you need HP warranty support.

    Since you have already upgraded to Win 10, the only way to check the recovery of 8.1 Win disks is to use them and start all over again. Or the support of disks/USB recovery HP Win 8.1 on a new equivalent or larger HDD or SSD. A good installation means that you have now the factory install on this disk.

    It's a lot of work.

    The problem of guaranteed support is your problem.

    I have eliminated this problem by installing Win 10 on a new SSD. I have HP Win 8.1 on a separate SSD and win 10 on a different SSD. Possible guarantee problem solution means earn 8.1 running on HP SSD factory to check the problem of winning 10 SSD.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting in the HP Support forum. Welcome!

    I'm afraid that you can't create partitions of recovery if they are deleted. End users cannot do.

    If the computer is originally shipped with Windows preinstalled by HP (OEM of Windows for example), you can buy HP recovery media. They are generally cheap. You can use it to restore your computer to factory default condition. Here's how:

  • Is it possible to convert the recovery CD into Windows installation CD?

    Hello

    I bought a laptop satellite and partitioned the hard drive!

    The problem now is that if I want to install windows mce 2005 again the reovery cd deletes all information of hard disk partition!

    My question is: is it possible to convert the toshiba recovery cd/DVDs in a normal working windows installation cd?

    Or is it possible to extract the image (.tpa /.000.001.002,.003,.004) files so that I can easily burn it to cd and copy the files extracted to the hard drive?

    I hope someone can help me!

    Hello

    Something like that is not possible. On the recovery of the media it is an image that cannot be split. As far as I know with CD recovery facilities, it is possible to install the OS on the first partition (if several available). You can also create own partitions.

    Please carefully check the menu at the beginning of the procedure of collection facilities.

  • No system boot, how to access the recovery partition?

    Hello
    While messing around with win7 and xp (from vista that was preinstalled on my system), I managed to make my computer unbootable.

    I made the recovery discs when I came to my computer, but I left with my parents... which is be the other side of the world (literally).

    However, I also kept the "recovery partition" intact, I hoped I could start somehow, but I don't know how.
    I tried holding down the zero, F2, F8... of other ideas?

    If not, is there another way to do it from a live CD? (like the one I currently use to write this message)

    Chris.

    Unfortunately, you will not be able to access the files for recovery. It can be done if the laptop has only factory settings. You use updated the system with two operating systems. If you want to have the factory settings again you can have with using the recovery disc only.

    I put t know how long it will take but maybe you should communicate with your parents and ask if they can send you the recovery disc as soon as possible.

    Otherwise you will have to use the installation disk of Microsoft for clean operating system installation. It can also be good solution for a few days until what you expect of original disc.
