Restoring the pre-installed software from the
Recovery Partition
A portion of the internal storage 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.

partitions in a manner other than specified in the manual, otherwise you
might find that space for the required software is not available.
In addition, if you use a third-party partitioning program to reconfigure the
partitions on your internal storage, you might find that it becomes
impossible to set up your computer.
Make sure that the AC adaptor is connected during the restoring
process.
Make sure to dock the tablet computer to TOSHIBA Keyboard Dock
before restoring the operating system (only for Z20t-B).
When you reinstall the Windows operating system, the internal storage will
be reformatted and all data will be lost.
