How do I recover my system?
From time to time you may experience issues with Windows. To fix most
problems, you can try to recover your system.
Can I backup my files before recovery?
Yes, you will have the option to recover your system with or without
backup of your files.

(operating system + factory installed programs + drivers that were
originally installed).
