Creating the Recovery Flash Drive
All Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 Computer Modules come with the built-in Elo Restore Utility on the Windows Desktop. The utility allows for
creation of a recovery flash drive based on the purchased operating system. Please create your recovery flash drive immediately. In the event that the
HDD/SSD recovery partition accidentally gets deleted or becomes inaccessible, you can use the recovery flash drive to recover your system.
The following procedures demonstrate how to create a recovery flash drive.
1. Right-click on the EloRestoreUtility icon on the Desktop and select "Run as administrator."
2. Click "Start" button to begin the process.
3. Once completed, you will see a pop-up window that will prompt you to insert a blank flash drive to any of the available USB ports on your system.
(For Windows 7, use a flash drive with at least 64GB of space available. For Windows 8.1, use a flash drive with at least 16 GB of space available)
