Please make sure to use the default Boot Mode option in TOSHIBA
Setup Utility before restoring.
1. In the Settings charm, click Power and then select Restart.
2. Hold down the F2 key and then release this key one second after
the computer is power on - the TOSHIBA Setup Utility will load.
In the TOSHIBA Setup Utility screen, select Advanced -> System
Configuration -> Boot Mode -> UEFI Boot (Default).
If you set the Boot Mode as CSM Boot, the recovery media created by
Recovery Media Creator will NOT be able to restore.
If you create a recovery image using advanced recovery tools from
Control Panel, please also make sure to use the default Boot Mode
option (UEFI Boot) in the TOSHIBA Setup Utility before restoring.
1. Load the Recovery Media into the Optical Disc Drive connected to
your computer or insert the recovery USB Flash Memory into one
available USB port.
2. In the Settings charm, click Power and then select Restart.
3. Hold down the F12 key and then release this key one second after the
computer is power on.
4. Use the up and down cursor key to select the appropriate option from
the menu according to your actual recovery media.
5. A menu will be displayed from which you should follow the on-screen
instructions.
If you have previously chosen to remove the recovery partition and are
trying to create "Recovery Media", you will see the following message: "The
Recovery Media Creator can not be launched because there is no recovery
partition."
When there is no recovery partition, the Recovery Media Creator cannot
make Recovery Media.
However, if you have already created a "Recovery Media", you can use it
to restore the recovery partition.
If you have not created "Recovery Media", please contact TOSHIBA
support for assistance.
Restoring the pre-installed software from the
Recovery HDD/SSD
A portion of the total HDD/SSD space is configured as a hidden recovery
partition. This partition stores files which can be used to restore pre-
installed software in the event of a problem.
If you subsequently set up your HDD/SSD again, do not change, delete or
add partitions in a manner other than specified in the manual, otherwise
you may find that space for the required software is not available.
