Software Update and Recovery Restoring to a Restore Point To restore the computer to a previous date and time when it was functioning optimally: 1. Select Start > Help and Support. 2. Click System Restore. The System Restore window opens. 3. Click Restore my computer to an earlier time, and then click Next. 4. Follow the on-screen instructions. Reinstalling Applications Applications preinstalled or preloaded on your computer can be reinstalled by using the Recovery disc or a third-party software disc. ✎ In most cases, the applications preloaded on your computer, such as those available in the Software Setup utility, can be reinstalled from your hard drive. To access the Software Setup utility, select Start > All Programs > Software Setup. The application reinstallation process replaces corrupted system files within the application and reinstalls deleted system files within the application. ■ In most cases: If the application you are reinstalling is still installed on your computer, the reinstallation process does not affect your settings within the application. ■ In all cases: If an application has been deleted from your computer, the reinstallation process reinstalls the application or utility to the factory image but cannot restore your personal settings.
