Getting Started 69 Recovering the Internal Storage Drive instructions on creating recovery media, see "Creating recovery media" on page 66. With recovery media, you can: ❖ Recover to out-of-box state (recommended recovery method) ❖ Recovery of factory default software with user's data ❖ Recover without changing the internal storage drive partitions ❖ Recover to a custom size partition For more information on these options, see "Recovering the Internal Storage Drive" on page 54. NOTE When you restore your system, only the operating system files, applications, and drivers originally shipped with the computer are restored. Any files that you created are not restored during this process. Be sure to separately save the files you have created to external media using Windows® Backup or another backup program. For more information, see "Backing up your work" on page 88.

Click Yes to continue. 6 When the Toshiba Recovery Wizard opens and the Selecting a Process screen displays, select Recovery of Factory Default Software and then click Next.
