Chapter 3. Recovery system

Introduction Push-button reset is a built-in recovery tool that enables users to restore their operating system to its original state. This preserves their data and important customizations, without the need to back up their data in advance. The following Push-button reset features are available to users from multiple locations within Windows:

Refreshing the computer Fixes software problems by reinstalling the factory default configuration. This preserves the user’s data, important settings, and any Windows Store apps previously purchased from the Windows Store.

Resetting the computer Prepares the computer for recycling or transfer of ownership. This reinstalls the factory default configuration and returns all user data and applications to the state of their original Out-of-Box Experience (OOBE).

For more instructions, see the Windows Help and Support file on your computer. When I purchased my computer, it included a copy of Windows. How can I determine whether the copy of Windows is preinstalled by Lenovo? On the outside of the sales package of your computer, you should find a label containing configuration information for your computer. Check the printed string next to OS. If it contains Windows or WIN, the copy of Windows was preinstalled by Lenovo. What is the Recovery Partition? If your computer is preinstalled with any version of Windows 10, the storage device of your computer contains a Recovery Partition. This partition contains the image file of the preinstalled Windows operating system. In cases of system failure, you can use the Lenovo OneKey Recovery system or the Windows Reset feature to restore the operating system to its factory status. Note: The Recovery Partition is not assigned a drive letter and cannot be accessed through Windows File Explorer.

Chapter 3. Recovery system

I uninstalled a preinstalled software, but there is no significant increase in the free drive space. The copy of Windows running on your computer may be WIMBoot-enabled. For computers with WIMBoot-enabled Windows, the majority of files needed for preinstalled software are installed on the Recovery Partition and won’t be deleted through normal uninstallation. What happens if I attempt to delete or modify the Recovery Partition? Attention: • Do not delete or modify the Recovery Partition on a WIMBoot-enabled computer.

If the Recovery Partition is deleted or modified, you may not be able to restore Windows to the factory status. For computer models on which WIMBoot is enabled, deleting the Recovery Partition may cause Windows to fail to start. How can I determine whether the Windows running on my computer is WIMBoot enabled? WIMBoot technology is normally enabled on copies of Windows 10 Update running on SSD (or eMMC) -only computer models. To check your computer, 1 On the start menu, click the Search box.

2 Make sure Settings is selected as the search scope and type Disk Management in the search box.

3 Click the search result and the Disk Management program starts. If Wim Boot is labeled on the Windows partition, WIMBoot is enabled on your copy of Windows.
