Recovering using HP Recovery Manager
HP Recovery Manager software allows you to recover the computer to its original factory state by using the
HP Recovery media that you created or by using the HP Recovery partition (select models only). If you have
not already created recovery media, see
Creating HP Recovery media on page 83.
Using HP Recovery media, you can choose from one of the following recovery options:
●
System Recovery—Reinstalls the original operating system, and then configures the settings for the
programs that were installed at the factory.
●
Minimized Image Recovery (select models only)—Reinstalls the operating system and all hardware-
related drivers and software, but not other software applications.
●
Factory Reset—Restores the computer to its original factory state by deleting all information from the
hard drive and re-creating the partitions. Then it reinstalls the operating system and the software that
was installed at the factory.
The HP Recovery partition (select models only) allows System Recovery and Minimized Image Recovery.
What you need to know
