Acer eRecovery Management
Acer eRecovery Management is a tool to quickly backup and restore the system.
You can create and save a backup of the current system configuration to hard
disk, CD or DVD. You can also backup/restore the factory default image, and
reinstall applications and drivers.
Acer eRecovery Management consists of the following functions:
1 Create backup
2 Burn backup disc
3 Restore and recovery
This chapter will guide you through each process.
Note: This feature is only available on certain models. For systems

optical disc burner before entering Acer eRecovery Management
for optical disc-related tasks.

Empowering Technology password to proceed. The Empowering Technology
password is set using the Empowering Technology toolbar or when first running
Acer eLock Management or Acer eRecovery Management.
