Start Menu, HP recovery

Hello

I deleted all my programs out of my program list in the start menu.  I know they are always installed, but I have no idea how to access.  Specifically, the program HP Recovery Manager.  I have a HP and what he was going to reformat my hard drive as an easy way to clean a lot of _ on my player, but I don't know how to access the Recovery Manager to do.  Usually I search for it in the search bar of the start menu, but as stated earlier, all that was in it is now gone and I don't know how to access.

You will need to contact HP on the link above for all questions you have regarding their recovery process.

This isn't their recovery process, Microsoft.

Here's the info General re recovery back to factory settings:

How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

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.

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

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

MS advice on the conduct of clean install.

A tutorial on the use of a clean install

Super Guide Windows Vista Installation

After installation > go to the website of the manufacturer of your computer/notebook > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > get latest Vista drivers for it > download/install them.

Save all data, because it will be lost during a clean installation.

See you soon.

  • How to remove "HP recovery manager" from the start menu?

    A year ago, I had a virus attack on my computer. Knocked it completely. In the process of reinstalling the computer, HP Recovery Manager was added to the start menu.

  • How can I recover windows files on the start menu as "Accessories" after the fake recovery tool?

    My pc has been infected recently with the fake windows recovery tool. I don't know how to recover the files/folders in the start menu and the desktop that were there before.

    It seems to remove the shortcuts in the start program, so a show systemic does not help.  Or it does solve the problem of the "NoDesktop" under political Explorer setting, which prevents the user access to the desktop (see  ( http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc938265.aspx).  I had to deal with a computer with these questions last week. I'm not sure it's the same virus (it was a fakesysdef one), but some things can not easily be corrected.  My experience was that I had to set up the shortcuts to start again, as they were not hidden, but they seem to just disappeared.

  • HP Envy23: Start Menu button does not work

    The Start Menu button has suddenly become unusable. The Home icon has been replaced by a sheet with the icon corner folded, and in a hurry, I get a message saying "the drive or network connection that designates the shortcut"Start Menu.Ink"is not available." Tried a couple of these corrections online and made sure everything is up to date.  Everything works well, except for this menu. Any suggestions?

    Hi there @Quetzle53

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! It's a good place to find the help you need, other users, the HP experts and other members of the support staff. I understand that the start menu works correctly for you. I'm happy to help you with this.

    If this just started to happen, it may be a good idea to start with a system restore, if possible. See the following link Microsoft showing the various recovery options in Windows 10, including system restore.

    Recovery in Windows 10 options - windows.microsoft.com

    First try restoring, and then if it does not give a shot with the System File Checker. The following link is a very complete description of this command and how to use it. The command SFC - run in Windows 10 - tenforums.com

    Afterwords to test and see if the normal is restored. If this isn't the case, then try the reset method described in my first link.

    Let me know if it works for you. If so please mark this message as a solution. If this is not the case, let me know any other details that you can, for example, error messages or other symptoms that you notice.

  • HP Mini 200-4200 doesn´t give USB in the Start Menu

    Hello!

    I have: HP Mini 200-4200, pr B3R47EA #ABU nr. Hard drive died, received a new one and I've been waitng for the upcoming USB info. I just got my USB with the news of recovery on it in time. (Recovery USB key is - 685741-034)

    I followed the instructions, but in the Start Menu of Options, he didn t give me an external drive. He gave me 3 options - hard drive for HP laptop, network adapter.

    I didn t know what to do, and the thought I´d go out of the system and ask for advice here. Press Esc. He then continued in the Recovery Manager. So I thought, Whew!, it'll work. Now however, he got stuck for about 3 hours (he can´t think as long?) in the present:

    "Recovery image factory preparations."

    Did you receive any additional disk supplied with the system recovery media? If so, insert it now; otherwise, click on ignore.

    Please wait. »

    The USB stick has been inserted all this time. Now, after 3 h in the same screen, I got him out for a second and put it back, no change.

    Current today?

    (should I press the 'skip' button?)

    SOS!

    ::::::::::::::::::::::::::

    While waiting for a response, I stopped the mini and returned to the BIOS (no idea what I m done - but in some post, someone said they changed their boot order... went to look for that)

    In the Conf system boot order appears like this: hard drive for laptop, USB floppy on say hard Key/Usb, CD-ROM Usb CD/dvd drive! USB floppy (with an exclamation point!) and network card. In the Boot Options startup disk has been disabled... I activated it. just in case... no idea what it means. After this USB doesn´t floppy have a "!" in this topic.

    Should I change here something to conditioned USB option? The order?

    I turned on my mini 3 times with the USB key in one of the 3 locations every time... it s do not know a good idea, but it's just doesn´t give me the option of Start Menu...?

    Now with everything enabled in the boot order... doesn´t still come as an option.

    :::::::::::::::

    People also speak of traditional can´t find anywhere in the BIOS to change any setting?

    ::::::::::::::::

    Oh and when I pop the USB in a location to another computer, it starts to read... but I m too ignorant and afraid to see that then happens, so I just took new.

    Start by using the option for "floppy USB disk hard key/Usb. This should return you to the same place as before. If it is not, disable booting to USB floppy option and try again. Since you did not receive an "additional disk" with your USB recovery media (and even if you did, you could not use it unless you have a USB CD/DVD drive), you'll want to press 'SKIP' when prompted. Then, just follow the prompts as required and eventualy Windows will be installed.

    Good luck and after back if you encounter other problems.

  • Satellite T130 - how to start HARD drive recovery?

    Hello

    Windows 7 was not working properly and I tried to reinstall. However, after the installation, it starts but it does not complete the process and maintains the pc shut down before I could use it. I can now use it just because I installed Ubuntu and I can also access all other partitions of Ubuntu, one that contains the HDD Recovery folder.

    Can I reinstall windows from this folder?

    Hello

    You are still able to access the start menu in Windows or Ubuntu installation has been removed and the Windows boot loader?
    If so, you are not able to start the HARD drive recovery more

    Why? It is very easy: even if you are able to access the files, you can start this feature because the original Windows Start menu of the preinstalled Windows system is necessary to start the HARD drive recovery feature.
    So in this case, you need the recovery media (USB key) that you created using Toshiba recovery media creator.

    Of course, this could work without installed Windows, but there is no guarantee for this.

    But why I m telling you this information? You can find everything in your owner's manual ;)

  • Cannot restore my laptop-"Repair my computer" not appearing is not in the start menu

    Once or twice in the past had to get my phone and it was an easy process thanks to the construction recovery option (computer repair) in the start menu (when you press F8 on the Toshiba screen), but now when I press F8 during the Toshiba screen and go to the boot options, there is no option to fix my computer. Fix my computer is usually the first option, but the first option is now "Start Windows in safe mode". Fix my computer disappeared! :(

    I think that the cause of my problem is that I started my laptop using my friend's windows startup disk when my computer would not start a month back. In fact, he got my laptop going again, but after starting my laptop, he told me that there is a problem with the start and he asked if I would like to repair and restart, I did. In addition, the windows startup disk, I used to start my laptop computer is a 64-bit version and my laptop has a 32-bit operating system. I don't know if that makes a difference.

    Could someone please help me by letting me know if there is anything I can do to get "Repair my computer" back. It is handy recover my computer when I want to just go back and get my laptop clocked in so it is better again.

    Short answer:
    There is nothing you can do about it except to include adjustments to plant again. I'm sorry. :(
