When I'm not a recovery to factory settings.

I can't recover after recovering accidentally to the factory instead of more recent recovery settings

N °

Once you do a restore to factory settings, you can not back.

This isn't like the system restore.

If you have lost data, you can try this:

If you have an installation clean back to factory settings, you normally wiped your hard drive clean during the process.

You can try this program:

Recuva is a file undeletion tool that allows you to analyze your hard drives or media cards for files that have been deleted or formatted. It presents you a list of files that have been found, as well as an assessment of their potential for recovery, a preview option, and a hex viewer to inspect the content. You can limit your search to files of a certain type (e.g. images, audio etc.) and choose between a quick and a thorough analysis approach. The program also includes a secure deletion option that allows you to permanently delete files that were found while parsing, to avoid any future recoveries.

  • Aspire V3-771 Wireless Windows 7 Ultimate edition will not return to the factory settings

    Hello everyone,
    so I'm having to V3-771-6601 laptop which I bought in the US 2 years ago. I have some kind of virus which was activated immediately after the sign in. Some photos of Interpol appears and they wanted to charge a fraud or something like that. I tried to press CTRL + ALT + DEL to task mngr, but the virus won't let me. So I entered in safe mode and saved all my valuable information. The laptop has windows 7 Home Edition. I decided to install W7 Ultimate RTM. So when I was doing that, I formatted ALL partitions that I saw on the screen. After that i have PXE boot problem. I realized that I need to connect my lan cable. Ok. After that the computer does not start, it shows just acer splash screen and immediately restarts again and again and again. I tried to click ALT + F10. At the bottom left, I saw "switch to erecovery" or something like that. After pressing alt + f10 there is a '_' in the upper left corner, and the Frank is frozen. So I can't even boot to see victory logo, even I can't return my phone to factory settings. Just to note I have no CD with my PC, only the power chords and that's all. The House of win 7 was already languages. Please guys help me how to fix my laptop.
    Best regards

    Well, you could have done your own recovery discs when you bought your PC!

    I agree that it is a shame that you can't get a copy of the disks where you live!

    If you are happy to have a cracked version of Windows, it is to you. Even if you can open a Pandora's box, we'll agree disagree on the question

    As for the problem of button, it could be a sign of a faulty keyboard or it could be a software problem. A few copies of cracking are so changed, it could be an error in the code!

    You can try and run a Linux live disk to see if it happens there. If so, then the keyboard will be replaced.

  • OS installs not after restoring to factory settings

    I've restored my HP DV5 laptop to factory settings. Once the restoration is complete, the computer restarts, but whenever it starts up and begins to install windows, a window appears indicating that an error has been encountered during installation. I click 'ok' and any repetitions. It's actually the second time that I have restored factory settings, because the first time, the screen would go black randomly and whatever program I was in would cease operation (the computer would still be on however). I ran a first hard disk and the memory test. Both have passed without error.

    Make sure that the woreless is put ON for the recovery process, not to touch any key or do anything while the recovery does its job, or that may cause failure too.

    Is there an error code?

    I guess that its Windows 7?

    I also made a recovery CD using the software provided, Toshiba, just in case but that doesn't seem to work either, or am I missing some piece of software so that it can work?

    > I have recently updated from vista to Windows 7 and now I press F8 during the restart of my pc and access the repair mode option configure initial Setup no longer, even if the files on the second partition of HARD drive for this purpose remain there and intact

    I guess the Win 7 update has changed the Boot Manager and this is why this option does not appear in any case.
    The Toshiba Recovery disk that you have created can help you restore the laptop back to factory settings. But this means that the HARD drive all over would be formatted again and you will lose the Win 7 again.

    To start the installation of the recovery disk, you must start from this drive and will have to follow the news on the screen.

  • Satellite C850D - error 10-FC12_045D during recovery to factory settings

    Hello

    I own a C850D satellite with Win7 64-bit, and for several days, the system became extremely slow and inadmissible. I first thought of a virus so I started it in integrated security mode and running antivirus (MS security essentials), another analysis has been made to a live CD antivirus Kapersky but no virus was detected.

    I took the decision to restore the whole system parameters according to the instructions of the user manual, and the restore process will fail with an error 10-FC12-045D.

    I suspect that the cause is a faulty hard drive. 2 quesntions:

    1. can anyone confirm this diagnosis? Should I seek other ways to diagnose a hardware problem on this laptop?
    2 - if it is confirmed that the HARD drive is broken, as I suspect, what is the process to get a new one and reinstall the OS Win7 to factory settings? I don't have any recovery media.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Yves.

    Hello

    If your laptop still has factory settings follow the user s manuals recommendation and create recovery discs. Test you like these discs and try to install the recovery image. If the same problem occurs again and again I m afraid HDD can be the troublemaker.

    I put t know if the warranty is still valid, but I recommend you to contact the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider and ask for help. Addresses and phone numbers, you can find on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT/

    Please send comments.

  • Qosmio F60 - 14Q: after recovery to factory settings, don't be loading not windows?

    I have a Qosmio, F60 - 14 Q, yesterday, I got an error "Windows has detected a hard disk problem. I contacted Toshiba support who advised me to run checkdisk which I did and 1 bad cluster was found, but the problem has not disappeared.

    Then they advised me to get back to the factory setting and save before I do, then I made backup and also made a recovery CD. Then I ran the Setup program that went well, but windows has not been loaded and blue screen came.

    It restarted again and request to insert a CD while I inserted the cd of restoration which lead me to the same place that I ran from recovery. The difference being it did not run this time when I tried?

    I think that it does not detect the hard disk, any help would be appreciated.

    > I think that it does not detect the hard disk, any help would be appreciated.
    You can see the details of the HARD drive in the BIOS?
    Verify that access to the BIOS (press F2 during boot) and the details of the HARD drive must be mentioned on the first page.

    If the HARD drive is not... Well then the HARD drive is faulty

    Hi all

    1. Install of Win7 64 bit is dead and has been reinstalled at the same time another installation of WIN7. Now it's getting back to the original stand. Due to a regular WIN7 version has been (re-) installed, I can not exceed the recovery "TOSHIBA HDD RECOVERY" option!

    The HARD drive got D: drive with the folder of HARD disk RECOVERY.
    Is it possible to return to the original install of WIN7 from Toshiba?

    Thank you very much in advance for any help.

    Hello

    > Due to a regular WIN7 version has been (re-) installed, I can not exceed the recovery "TOSHIBA HDD RECOVERY" option!

    This means that the BMR is eliminated and changed and so the HARD drive recovery option isn't appearing any more in the start menu.

    The option can be the use of the recovery diskette.
    You can order a disk to recover here:

  • Factory settings Resinstalling when blue Thinkvantage button does not work

    Last year, I panicked when I thought I had a virus. Rather than rely on my own multiple back-up system, I guess someone knew more about computers that I do and let someone else in my computer. My X 60 has not worked properly since. The Thinkvantage button does not work, and it is hit and Miss as to if I can get the thinkvantage functions to work. My wireless radio buttons don't work at all, and the indicator wireless lights turn on and turns off at will.

    I tried to reinstall the application and the update of all implement the Lenovo site, but nothing worked, so I think I'll have to reinstall the orginal factory settings and start over again to clarify these issues.

    I backed up all my data, and made discs (just in case) recovery... now my question is, how do I start to "rescue and recovery" / 'reinstall factory settings' when the blue button does nothing when I push at the start?

    (Works under XP - if that makes a difference).

    Thank you

    Problem solved.

    I managed to get into Rescue and Recovery manually and found that I had a backup on my C drive that existed prior to my problems. I just restore to that date and "presto!" the blue button works again!

    I'll have to spend the rest of the day, re-installing everything that has been added or upgraded from a year, but this simple step seems to have solved my problem. Who would have thought that I had a copy of backup to disk C - I thought I backed everything up to an external drive!

    Tip for any staff of Lenovo, reading this - if your security people knew more about Thinkvantage program, I could have solved this problem months ago - these are them who sent offshore to find updates to day and re - install Thinkvantage to try to get the blue button works again.

    Thank you all.

  • Satellite C650 will not run recovery

    Hi, hope I can be helped here,

    I have a satellite C650-166, there lack of battery while doing a windows update standard, now he used to re boot. I fear not the laptop to factory settings, to rest that I intended to do anyway.

    I followed the instructions on the screen to run the Startup Repair tool, but whenever I do this it loads its files, then goes to a black screen with just the cursor.

    I tried the, hold 0 way to fix and I just get the same thing every time, I hit the 'repair your computer' then it does not make the system recovery options...

    I am using an external monitor, but I don't see what is the problem that I wouldn't be able to see the cursor... surely?

    Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance

    In general the document recovery disk image installation works as described in follow - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R02.htm

  • After a restore to the factory settings, where personal files are?

    I recently had a problem on my laptop (gateway) that prevents Windows to boot the system.  I went through the automatic tests on splash screens.  Files were good, the disk check was good, went to a restore point, but still was not able to start.  I got a message that there was no specified "configuration change".  So I chose the option to restore factory settings.  I didn't need a disk to do - it took place without no boot disk required.  There was a message related to the restoration who said that my files could be stored on the hard drive partitioned part.  I couldn't get to my personal files anyway, so I decided to take the chance to do the restore and hope that Windows would save my stuff.  Well, Windows is running, but I can't find my files.  The page of my computer shows 2 hard drives, 'Local' and 'Recovery', but I don't know how to access recovery or if my files are still there.

    Is there a chance that my stuff is still in this machine, or I'm just the GROUND?

    Thanks in advance for any kind souls who can solve the riddle!
