• How to cancel a Rescue and Recovery

  Hi, I have a Lenovo X 61 laptop. My hard drive has been divided into two partitions: operating system and data. Recently, I found that my Windows was no longer able to boot. I managed to install Windows 7 in OS partition. All my files in the second partition has been preserved. My laptop was working fine then. I realized later however that the Lenovo drivers are gone (for example: recognition, which was not necessary, but good to have fingerprints). So by digging the box where my laptop was packed, I found the CD "Rescure and recovery." So I plugged in and restarted, thinking that it will just install the drivers needed in return. But then not only if it deleted Windows 7 that I just reinstalled, but it destroyed the partitions and delete all my data in the second partition. Is there some way I can restore the configuration partition and all data I had? Thanks in advance.

  not at all, rescue and recovery media is for the recovery of the device in default, as it was delivered to the customer. It is impossible to restore this operation in a standard way, if you did, which confirmed the operation in the wizard of R & R.

• IBM ThinkPad T43: Rescue and Recovery question

  Hello

  I have an IBM ThinkPad T43. The Rescue and Recovery program opens whenever I turn on my laptop after a failed attempt to restore my laptop to factory settings. I cannot even connect on Windows, because the Rescue and Recovery program opens upwards immediately after I turned on the power. I tried to restore my system to factory settings using the program and the product recovery disc I bought at Lenovo, in the hope of resolving the issue, but every time I'm prompt "IBM could not restore your system.

  How can I stop Rescue and Recovery of the opening and resume with normal startup in Windows? What should I do so that I am able to restore my laptop to factory settings?

  Please help if you have any suggestions. I appreciate it greatly! Thank you!

  You can use this TI pc doc disk bootable http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?LegacyDocID=MIGR-56222 its been a long time since I used it, but I think that in the top right there is a tab that says utilities or something like that you can wipe the HARD drive from there as I've always used the quick option worked for me

• Lenovo 3000 N200 - cannot access Rescue and Recovery - MBR poss problem?

  I have a Lenovo 3000 N200 sick who was running XP home. I could not start XP and can only access the Rescue and Recovery utility in the Lenovo recovery Partition that would be to rebuild the hard drive to factory settings IE. Windows XP with no data. I managed to copy the data using a Paragon backup cd and then made the fatal mistake of attempting a repair MBR, which was a very tempting option on the Paragon rescue cd. Now, not only it does not boot to XP, but I can run is even more Rescue and Recovery to reinstall XP which is the problem!

  If I boot with windows install disc and take the option recovery console it stops, statement that "recovery console could not find the hard drives connected to your computer. Setup cannot continue. "

  I was wondering if someone another backup MBR restore could help me with this?

  So, if someone has a Lenovo 3000 N200 work and is willing to try to save the MBR to send it to me, then please get in touch. It is probably useful to make a backup for yourself where the same problems happen to you!  In my view, there are a bunch of programs that backup the MBR for example MBRtool, MBRWizard and so on.

  Any ideas, offer accepted with gratitude.

  Yes I know I could buy the Lenovo recovery disk, but it is a matter of principle for me avoid paying £50 or so if I can avoid it! We'll see if we can help here...

  Thank you

  I am pleased Andyp!

  The solution was to set the primary partition to inactive and value the recovery partition Active, then restart and use the Lenovo Care button (now finally works) to access the function of recovery so I could return the laptop to factory State.

  No doubt there are plenty of ways to do it, but the approach I took to solve this problem is released under

  1. use another PC to download Paragon backup and restore (I actually used the trial edition now but the free edition may have a similar feature)

  2nd burn a CD bootable backup and recovery 10.0.

  3. start the CD Lenovo, and after a long wait, a menu should appear with 11 options, the first of them being Paragon backup and restore.

  4. Select Paragon backup and restore.

  5 select properties in the pick a task window and you will see two partitions, a big enough (in my case Go 143, called Preload) and the other is quite small (6 GB called SERVICEV001).

  Note: this is an opportunity brilliant to use the Back Up Partition option to make a backup on external drive USB of the two partitions as the reconstruction of the hard drive with Lenovo Care button you will lose all data.

  6 right-click the partition preloads and select Edit and set idle

  7. made the SERVICEV001 partition right click and select Edit and set the Active

  8 remove the backup and recovery of CD and put it somewhere safe

  9. restart the PC and Lenovo Care button (might be called something different) should now work, allowing you to restore the hard drive to factory settings which will erase all data of a personal nature. You did a backup?

  10 Windows should then start as usual, reinstall Paragon backup and restore, and restore your data.

  Finally, look at this as a lesson to

  (a) you get a writable DVD and use the Lenovo menu under windows to create a floppy disk from Lenovo rescue and recovery started.

  (b) use Paragon or equivalent to create copies of images of each partition and ordinary differential copies of the primary partition.

  I hope this will help other owners who have a hidden rescue for example partition. IBM and HP and would like to receive feedback.

  Finally, I must acknowledge assistance patient e-mail provided by Taisia Smirnova Paragon support by offering me this solution.

  best, Simonides

• Rescue and recovery cannot delete backups

  Hello

  I have problem delete old backups with Rescue and Recovery - always when I try to delete them, it seems to work, but it is not, it never ends... I tried to remove one of all backups, only the last or only the oldest or all of them together, but without effect. I have 6 backups about 45 GB together. And by the way that r & R does not well at all - also when I click on optimize backup storage space, it does not work...

  Eventually, it is normal that when deleting old backups, computer seems cold and it takes a long time, but I don't know if it never ends.

  I have the latest version of Windows XP Pro SP3, R & R 4.21.0016 R61.

  Is there a solution?

  Thank you very much!

  V.K.

  Uninstall rescue and recovery of add/remove programs. It will remove the backups in this way.

• Rescue and recovery and windows 8.1

  Hello

  For the last 4 years, I used Rescue and Recovery on the my ThinkPad to keep backups (really liked the functionality of incremental backup) and restore unique when files necessary.

  I have now just received a new X 1 carbon gen3 coming with default Windows 8.1 and a lot of the classic ThinkVantage tools are missing. I've heard many of these tools no longer exist or are replaced by "apps".

  But what of Rescue and Recovery? Impossible to find anywhere for Windows 8.1 and it is really a great tool.

  Any idea? I just missed the link somewhere? It's official, and it tools is not taken in charge (and will never) on Windows 8.1? No work around? (such as installation of Windows 7 and cross my fingers?)

  Thanks for your comments on that (I'm already hating Windows 8.1, fortunately Windows 10 will be better...)

  Rescue and Recovery is not supported on 8 win 8.1 you can try using windows backup.

• Rescue and Recovery backup not file system - without error message

  I use, since 1985 the first IBM, Lenovo then. I was very happy, my next Lenovo will be bought next spring.

  But I'm just very disappointed. Daily tracks of rescue and recovery on the local disk, which later are copied to a backup drive.

  The program has never shown an error on the screen and still run perfectly-, I thought!

  A few days ago, I got a Windows error for the first time. There are a lot of missing files.
  I restored the system on the R & R and reboted. But cannot start.
  With a boot disk, I booted the system and could now see that all the Windows directory was empty!

  Unfortunately, I can not in R & R files see what files and directories contain a backup? Or can you?

  Question 1:

  So I would like to know how if someone can enlighten me.

  Then I started to investigate on what had happened. In c:-Library SWSHARE I found some files that I see is connected to R & R.
  In the engine.log file, I see R & R has written a large number of error lines, of which a part is reproduced below. File dates to 2011 and there are errors all the way

  Question 2:
  Why the program not onscreen when R & R run display errors, so that the user knows there are errors?

  Now I'm sitting at the bottom with a long nose, after 2 days and nights, trying to find a solution and restored the system several times and do not know how the file system works will come back on my PC so normally again.

  Be more happy if someone can tell me how to solve this problem.

  Here is a selection of error lines:

• Cannot re - install Rescue and Recovery

  I have seen "backup" etc. in the menu of the Toolbox and uninstalled hastily - but actually I managed to uninstall Rescue and Recovery (recovery of blue button style). Now I can not reinstall it-"the installation was interrupted" - "your system has not changed." No idea why. Also cannot install SystemTap. Any ideas? Sorry I have no information better than this. The system works perfectly and all updates are installed. Just no notes R & r.: the works of blue button - it starts in a version of R & R. But if ever I need this facility, I can not trust to really work unless R & R gets reinstalled from the Windows side.

  OK found the answer. I was using the administrator account. I logged in as account owner, and the installation was successful. Thank you for my help, me!

  I tried again and SU acknowledges that it has been already downloaded, but the result was the

• Rescue and recovery blocks for hours at 0% of backup

  Hello

  My R61 ran quite OK, but slower over time. I got through rescue and recovery made a backup of the entire system on an external hard drive. (I had come back to XP and recently did a total system backup on the external HD). So I haven't started the rescue and recovery, thinking that he should simply reinstall it previously saved system. Alas at step 2 the progress of rescue and recovery, the new generation of the system stopped. Black screen with the message: «backup system is...» 0 % ». Here I wait for hours. Nothing progesses.

  What should I do? Island of 'progress' is already happening for 6 hours! (I see that my external HD flashes from time to time, but the computer does not seem to do anything).

  What should I do? I fear that if I press the power button to restart the computer, I will plant it completely.

  Please help me!

  Thanks in advance

  Roger

  Rescue and recovery hung several times for hours. Yet, it seemed to work after 20 hours. Puhhhh...

  Lenovo at: Your UI during the rescue and recovery process is ineffective. He left me without any feedback for hours. Almost, I rebooted the computer during critical backups. Here you certainly should help the user to understand what to do and what not. How can I find out, it's OK to have a bar saying 0% progress made for 8 hours.

  Even now, I don't know what to do. The computer restarts, windows is OK. But now I can turn off the computer or is always something during rescue and recovery. The last time, he says, it is step 2 on a total of 5 steps. Is it still now something in the back? The rescue is complete? Where is the message telling me, he did the job.

  All users: be patient, do not hit anything it either by running a rescue and recovery.

  Lenovo: By the way, I had - after installing my computer with xp - makes a backup of the system. that I repeated it several times. When my HD arrived full, I remove some of the older versions, because anyway, I had the newer versions which worked perfectly. Alas, I didn't, which obviously rescue and recovery done a system save, later versions are simply updated. By removing the first version, I lost all the! So, I ended up having no actual backup of a validating at the beginning.  In short: Rescue and Recovery can be a tool very well for an IT expert. For the average user, there are much too many traps. Lenovo: Try to it you like-centered-design user instead of the user Board Chinese garbage, if in the future, you want to keep as «almost IBM» brand name For me, Lenovo - in this regard - is more "almost Chinese It-garbage".

• Rescue and recovery X 1 Win10PRO carbon

  Just got a X carbon 1 and modernized to win 10

  1)

  Wanted to use the system to make a picture, but I got

  ERROR: "there was a failure while compacting the virtual disk on the backup location. (0 x 80780151)

  Googled around, bu tno solution.

  Anyone know when it will be solved?

  2)

  And another problem. I am IBM and Lenovo user for several years, and the best backup system I've ever used is the rescue and recovery. After getting my new X 1 carbon with 8.1 Pro I upgraded to 10 Pro and if you come for the Lenovo of installation I clicked for works RandR 4.52, which proved in the software Lenovo, but unfortunately it download, unpack and then stops. Without any news. So I started the Setup file myslef, and... my God... it can not be installed!

  I'm angry.

  Why Lenovo not tell us this? And if she came, when is it ready?

  Lenovo Solution Center, if you use win8 or win 10, should offer NOT RNR as a backup option.

  If would be nice if they removed the advertising, "it takes a HDD to take backup more," store here.

  To win 10, I would like to start off the coast with a windows image backup.  Apparently, windows launched LSC backup, and you got the return code that you noted in the initial post. Backup Windows runs fast, but it lacks many features of RNR.

  I would like to run windows backup from the Control Panel, which you have done already. Some of the windows backup return codes and error messages, can be deceiving.  Check the EVENT VIEWER after windows backup error, to see if other return codes are present.

  Example: "you do have not enough free space on the device target to perform a backup' RC = 0 x 00000.

  Further, the question was NOT enough free space in the lecteur_systeme windows backup staging a zone index for vs.

  I would check the available in System_drive freespace.  This can be a hidden partition.  You need at least 200 MB freespace.

  A google search of the return code that State you have many successes.  I have try the backup, check the event viewer for VSS fail return code, which is passed back to backup windows.  If you have a VSS error, I would google search on the return code from VSS, windows backup not the return code.

• Rescue and recovery disk letters - error message

  You try to run rescue and recovery after partitioning my hard drive in the following error message results:

  C:

  Your system currently is backup of the following drive letters:

  Please set the letters as they were before and run another backup. You may need to exclude partitions created since the last backup.

  Now, I've changed the options to exclude E: but I was wondering is it possible to include in backups - I have to save it on a USB drive without any previous backups on this subject? And is it a good idea to use R & R for backup partitions?

  Any advice much appreciated!
