Chapter 3. System Recovery

Attention: Read and understand this complete section before using the System Recovery feature.
System Recovery can recover the operating system and data from the last backup; this means that all
data on the hard disk not captured in the last backup will be erased and overwritten. Be sure you have
backed up all important data before using System Recovery.
From the main interface, select System Recovery by pressing the ↑ or ↓ key, then press Enter. The
recovery prompt interface is displayed. See Figure 5.

Press the E key to continue. The recovery progress interface appears.
Note: After the recovery operation has started, pressing the C key will interrupt and quit the operation. If
you quit System Recovery by pressing the C button, you will not be able to start your operating system for
normal operation. You must restart and complete System Recovery before you will be able to use your
computer.
When System Recovery finishes, the success prompt appears. See Figure 6 on page 6. Press any key to
restart your computer.
