Try to use eRecovery for reset to factory settings: is there a way to backup programs, games, documents?

original title: try to use eRecovery for reset to factory settings...

Hello

I press alt and f10 when you start the computer, however the factory settings reset deletes all data on c. This I mean all software, programs, games, documents, etc...

Is it possible to back up such things as after resetting to factory settings process I can restore them? BTW, I'm using a Standard account, my pc has no administrator account, and it's actually the reason why I want to reset to factory settings.

Thank you!

Hey redhalls

You are right

a factory recovery erases the hard drive clean of everything

read the information on the backup of your data first below

but you cannot save installed programs

they will have to reinstalled from the original or redownloaded media

  • no internet connection after resetting to factory settings

    I have a laptop HP HPG71-449WM.  He has screwed up and wouldn't let me not restore to an earlier point at all so I reset to factory settings.  I don't have a return to the top because there was nothing that I wanted to save.  I can't connect to the internet now, wireless or by connecting an ethernet cable.   It gets an error while going through the initial report put in place where you set your password for the pc, time, etc.  When he arrived at the place to connect to the internet, it gets an error, freezing.  I turn it off and turn it on and it just loads as a normal computer, but impossible to connect to the internet no matter what.  I have reset the settings to factory on 5 times in the last 3 days and get the same problem each time.  I have no recovery disk or whatever it is.

  • Satellite Pro L450D - 12 X - reset to factory settings after formatting

    Hello

    I tried upgrading my installation of Windows 7 Professional to Windows 7 ultimate. I ended up format the partition and now Windows will not load and the installation hangs right on 0%. I don't have a disc of recovery for this laptop, is it possible to access the recovery partition on this laptp to reset to factory settings or a restore CD I can order and it will work?

    The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite Pro L450D - 12 X

    Hey Buddy,

    If you have already formatted the Windows partition, you are not able to start the recovery of HARD drive more. Also there is no possibility to access the recovery files and start them, so the pre-installed operating system is necessary.

    The only option you have is Toshiba recovery disc. Only with this drive, you can restore the original settings of the box but I m wondering why you have n t a. It s mentioned in the user manual you have to create yourself

    In any case, just order a disc here and be happy ;)

  • Cannot find the airport and cannot reset to factory settings

    I have a 2 TB Time Capsule airport who unfortunately through a handful of the network changes, somewhere along the lines, I pressed "forget the device" and now for the life of me, I can't connect to it.

    I'm unable to reset to factory settings, because I have about 1 GB of data and Time Machine backups on it.  Is it possible can recover and make it visible again so I can continue with my backups, without reset it completely?

    Reset time Capsule, regardless of the type of reset you, affects all data stored on the internal hard drive of the TC.

  • I downloaded and used a test of Lightroom, several days ago.  I've used and have a library, but now, when I try to use it today, my pictures seem to be there in the library but when I try to start working on a new picture, I get a "file not found messages

    I downloaded and used a test of Lightroom, several days ago.  I've used and have a library, but now, when I try to use it today, my pictures seem to be there in the library but when I try to start working on a new picture, I get a ' file not found message.»  How can I go back in my files?

    There are a number of options available when you choose to import files to your catalog in Lightroom (library)

    1 copy / copy as DNG, this option allows you to copy files of origin from their existing location, for example a folder on an existing, promenade, internal, external, a reader of card or a camera SD card connected to the computer via a USB port, to a location of your choice, in a folder of a HARD internal, external HARD disk drive or a network drive on your choice.

    2. move. This option allows you to move files of origin of their location, for example a folder on an existing drive, internal or external to a new location of your choice, in a folder of a drive HARD internal, external HARD disk or a network drive on your choice. (the Move option you cannot move files from a card or your camera.)

    3. ADD., this option allows you to add image files to the catalog of their location, for example a folder on an existing drive, internal, external or network drive and the original images remain in their current location.

    The original image file will be located at the location of your choice.

    There are no image files in your catalog (or library) file the original files are in the location you choose.

    If you choose to add files to your catalog from an external drive, then unplug the player from your computer, then Lightroom which will show the 'file not found '.

    In IE: File | Import and export | Export to a file. Check Favorites | Next | Next | Navigate to a folder or the desktop and export. Drag the folder in the flash player.

  • Satellite A200-195 - you try to reset to factory settings

    Hello

    After you have backed up all my data, I'm trying to reset my Toshiba Satellite A200-195 back to factory settings, to try to get some of the performance. Internet search has launched a number of ways to do this, but none do not work for me.

    I tried now button 0/F1/F8 when switching on the PC until I get the beeps. But then, the only options I get are safe mode, safe mode with networking or start Windows normally.

    I pressed the F8 key the time Toshiba screen upwards and got through a number of options, including the repair of the system. However, after selecting that, when the dialog box appears, these are all the options I get

    1 Startup Repair tool
    2 system restore
    3 Windows complete PC Restore
    4 Windows Memory Diagnostic tool
    Command prompt 5
    6 restore the full Windows operating system.

    There is nothing obviously suggests a Toshiba Assistant or mentions the factory settings. I tried the last option, which brings up a dialog box telling me that if the pre-installed files are corrput I can use the recovery disks and just the OK option. After clicking on OK nothing happens. I tried several times, but each time waived forward and pressed the stop down or restart buttons.

    I also tried the first 3 options, but none of them gave me an option to reset the default or the other.

    I have no recovery disks and I saw searched the help files for the system backup, can't find anyway to create them - only standard data file backups.

    I don't have any disks that came with the laptop.

    I am running Windows Vista Home Premium.

    Can anyone suggest anything, that I have not tried yet please? PLEASE?

    Thank you. :)

    Obviously the HDD recovery partition isn t available on the HARD disk and, therefore, you will not be able to perform HARD drive recovery procedure.

    To retrieve the computer laptop back to factory settings, recovery disk should be used.
    If you n t own this disc, try to order the support on this page:

    But in case the laptop is too old, you will not be able to order this support more.

  • [N900 / WNDR4500]-cannot use / access some sites web/services even after reset to factory settings

    Hello

    I just moved into a new home; my old cable modem was damaged during the move, and so I had to replace it (same manufacturer, newer model). The problem started then with messeging (Messenger of the LINE) service not working at all when the wifi - direct connection has worked very well for the PC and the phone worked when using mobile data. Until now, it appeared that this app has been affected that I could still do other things very well (for example surf the web, email checked).

    I tried the firmware update and later reset the router to the factory settings, or even delete the app and reinstalled it, but they've made the app worked part of the time only. However, I noticed recently that I couldn't access certain Web sites via wifi, too. Again, problem has disappeared during the use not wifi.

    No idea on how to solve this problem is highly appreciated.

    Thank you

    b.

    go to settings... internet configuration... Select use PC MAC address... restart the modem and router
