Creating recovery media and backups
Recovery after a system failure is only as good as your most recent backup.
1. After you successfully set up the computer, create recovery media. This step creates a backup of the
recovery partition on the computer. The backup can be used to reinstall the original operating system in
cases where the hard drive is corrupted or has been replaced.
You will use a USB ash drive to create a bootable recovery drive that can be used to troubleshoot a
computer that is unable to start. The USB ash drive can be used to reinstall the original operating
system and the programs that were installed at the factory.
NOTE: Any information on the USB ash drive will be erased before the recovery media is created.
●
To create the Windows 8.1 recovery media, from the Start screen, type recovery drive, then
click on Create a recovery drive. Follow the on-screen instructions to continue.
●
To create the Windows 8 recovery media, from the Start screen, type recovery drive, and
then click on
Settings, then click on Create a recovery drive. Follow the on-screen instructions to
continue.
2. Use the Windows tools to create system restore points and create backups of personal information. For
more information and steps, see Help and Support. From the Start screen, type help, and then select
