Introduction

Lenovo® OneKey Recovery is an easy-to-use application that can be used to back up the data on your system partition (C drive) and then easily restored when required. You can run Lenovo OneKey Recovery under both Windows and WinPE.

In Windows, you can create a backup of an entire system partition, saving it your local hard disk. You can back up your data to a CD, DVD, network drive or other removable disk. In addition, you can also create Windows recovery disc(s) to boot and recover your system.

If you need to recover your system, you can use OneKey Rescue System, which includes several applications to help you detect and remove viruses, and recover Windows system and data. You can press OneKey Rescue System key to activate Lenovo OneKey Rescue when your PC is turned off. Within the program, you can restore your system partition to the original factory status or to a previously generated backup. You may also transfer critical data or documents to other storage devices. All these features make Lenovo OneKey Recovery an important utility to secure your data.

Important Notes

1. In order to utilize the features of OneKey Recovery, your hard disk already includes a hidden partition by default to store a system mirror image file and OneKey Recovery program files. This default partition is hidden for security reasons and is the reason the available disk space is less than it claims. The exact available hard disk space depends on the file size of the mirror image file (based on the size of operating system and pre-installed software.)

2. You can use Restore to Factory Default feature to restore the system partition (C drive) back to the factory default, i.e. the state your computer was when you purchased it. However, once you restore to this status, you will not be able to restore the system to another previously backed up state. Therefore, make sure you back up your critical data on the system partition (C drive) to other media, such as a another disk partition, CD/DVD discs or removable storage devices.

Create Full Backup

There are two backup types that can be created: full backup and incremental backup. Selecting Full backup backs up your system partition to a folder on the hard disk in order to recover it in the future. The program will save the backed up data to the default location. For example to D:\Lenovo\OneKey App\OneKey Recovery. You may also select another destination, such as removable storage devices, network drives or a CD/DVD.

If you choose to back up system partition to a disc (CD/DVD), the created discs can be used to recover your system to the current status.

We suggest you do the following before you create recovery discs:

• Use the latest version of your system's anti-virus software to scan your computer and make sure it is virus-free.
• Optimize your system, including scanning and defragmenting your hard disk drive.

Create Incremental Backup

An incremental backup is a backup of your data based on previous backed up file located in the default path. This backup includes different data than the full backup, such as application variations and user data.

Incremental backup can only be saved to the default path; it cannot be backed up to another location.

En-4

Create Recovery Disc

You can burn the backup image to a CD/DVD as recovery discs. The recovery discs can be used to boot up your computer automatically and restore your system back to previously backed up status. If your hard disk fails and you are unable to use Lenovo OneKey Recovery on your computer, you can use these discs to recover your system on a reformatted hard drive.

1. Please make sure to create recovery discs, so that you can recover your system, even when replacing the hard drive.
2. After the recovery discs are burned, please number them so that you can use them in order.
3. When burning the recovery discs, please use good quality discs with to ensure the burning process and backed up data is complete and correct.

Restore of Factory Default

In order to save application files and the initial backed up files of the system, the hard disk in a Lenovo PC includes a hidden partition when it is shipped. If you need to restore the system to the point of your first boot up, just enter Lenovo OneKey Rescue System and run Restore to Factory Default. This will delete all the new data on the system partition (C partition), which is not recoverable. Make sure to back up your critical data before you run this feature.

En-5

Restore from Backup

If you want to recover the system to a previous status, you just need to enter Lenovo OneKey Rescue, and select Restore from User's Backup. Select the appropriate image file or, if you have run incremental backup before, you can use the incremental file to restore your system.

The process above will remove all data on the current system partition (C partition), which is not recoverable. Please back up all important data before restoring to a previous backup.

Using Recovery Discs

When you replace a hard disk drive in your computer, you are unable to use the pre-installed Lenovo OneKey Recovery and OneKey Rescue. However, you can use the recovery discs that store your backed up data to restore your new hard drive to a previous backup status.

When you use the recovery discs to boot your computer, the system will enter system recovery user interface automatically. Please follow the prompt to insert the backup discs in order to complete the entire recovery process.

En-6

Back Up My Data

Within the Lenovo OneKey Rescue System you can transfer your data from your computer's hard disk to other devices, so you may easily find it if your Windows system ever encountered a critical failure.

System Repair

When you use Lenovo OneKey Rescue System, the program detects whether Windows has been damaged. If the system kernel files are damaged, Lenovo OneKey Rescue System will prompt you to proceed with a system repair. The system will reboot after the repair process is complete. If there are no files damaged, Lenovo OneKey Rescue System starts normally.

- System repair only works for system data files. Using this feature will not affect your own data

Set and Manage User Password

You can set up your user password within Lenovo OneKey Rescue System to ensure other users cannot use the system recovery or Back Up My Data functions.

By default, the user password within the Lenovo OneKey Rescue System is blank and it is recommended that you immediately set a new password to ensure your system is protected.

Therefore, it is recommended that you back up your critical data on the system partition (C drive) before proceeding.
Full backup	A full backup is a backup of the entire system partition. You will need to perform a full back up before you can run incremental back up. The backed up data will be saved in the default location. You can also specify the location to another path.
Incremental backup	An incremental backup is a backup of your data based on previous backed up file, backing up only the new/different data. Incremental backup can save hard disk space and back up time. For ease of management, the incremental backup file can only be saved to the default location.

Backing Up Your Data

1. Why can't I run full back up?

The possible causes are:

• Case 1: you are not currently using a Windows operating system (XP/Vista).
• Case 2: there is not enough space to store the backed up data. You will need to free more hard disk space on your system partition (C drive).
• Case 3: if you are backing up your data to a CD/DVD, make sure you are using compatible burning devices.
• Case 4: if you are burning backed up files to CD/DVD, make sure the burning devices are compatible with the CD/DVD discs.

2. Why can't I run incremental back up?

The possible causes are:

• Case 1: you didn't run full backup in the default path. Please make sure you ran full back up in this path before running incremental backup.
• Case 2: you didn't select the default path for incremental back up. Incremental backed up files can be only saved to the default path. Please do not specify a different location.
• Case 3: the free disk space for the default location is insufficient. Please free more space on that hard drive.

En-10

1. What can I do if the back up process fails?

If you can start the back up feature without a problem, but it fails during the back up process, please try the following steps:

1. Close other applications, then restart the backup process.

2. Check if the destination media is damaged, try to select another path and then try again.

Recovering Your Data

1. When do I need to use the Restore to Factory Default feature?

You can use this feature when your system fails or you need to re-install your operating system. This will restore your computer back to the initial status when you first booted up your computer after receiving it from the store. By doing this, the data on your system partition will be restored to the factory default. If there is critical data on your current partition, please back it up before you run this recovery feature.

1. Why can't I use the Restore to Factory Default feature?

If your system partition was modified, such as the partition size or the drive capacity of C was changed by another partition utility, you will not be able to use the Restore to Factory Default feature. Therefore, we suggest that you don't change the size of that partition to make sure the Restore to Factory Default feature is workable under any circumstance.

En-11

3. What can I do if the recovery process fails?

If you can start the recovery feature without a problem, but it fails during the recovery process, this may be caused by one of the following reasons:

• The backed up files were damaged
• The disc(s) were physically damaged
• Other unknown issues

In this case, please select other backed up files and try to recover them. If it still doesn't work, you can use Restore to Factory Default feature to restore your system partition to factory default. Please note your data on system partition will be lost during this restore process.

4. Why can't I find the backed up files during recovery process?

In OneKey Rescue System, the disk partition structure is different from Windows system. Therefore you may not be able to find the backed up data in the Windows backup path. In this case, you can change to another disk partition and try to locate backed up data in the folders of other partitions, then continue to complete the recovery process.

En-12

Using Recovery Disc(s)

1. How can I create the recovery discs for my current system?

You can use Create Full Backup feature in OneKey Recovery's Backup section, then choose back up to discs.

1. Why can't the recovery disc(s) recover the entire hard disk drive?

The recovery discs include the backed up files of the system partition (c partition), instead of the backed up files of entire hard disk drive. Therefore you can't recover the entire hard disk with the recovery discs you created.

1. Why can't I use the recovery disc(s)?

2. When you create recovery discs, please use reliable discs, or the backed up data may be damaged.

3. When you use the recovery discs, please follow the instructions to insert backup discs.

Back Up My Data Feature

1. When do I need to use the Back Up My Data feature?

When your system fails or is unable to boot up, you can use Back Up My Data feature to retrieve the data you need immediately from your PC.

En-13

Others

1. How do I access the Lenovo OneKey Rescue System?

You can press OneKey Rescue System key to activate Lenovo OneKey Rescue when your PC is turned off. You cannot only use system recovery features, but also use other applications like system recovery, virus detection and cleaning to protect your computer.

1. Why can't System Repair fix system partition data completely?

System Repair feature can only fix important system kernel files to ensure the system can boot up normally. It will not repair all data files.

1. Why does System Repair always prompt me that system kernel files need to be repaired when using OneKey Rescue System?

Please make sure you have installed Windows Vista SP1 or Windows XP SP2 on your system.
