Restore of factory default

The IdeaPad S100 computers come with pre-installed OneKey Rescue System.
In order to save application files and the initial backed up files of the system, the
hard disk in a Lenovo computer includes a hidden partition when it is shipped. If
you need to restore the system to the point of your first boot up, just enter
Lenovo OneKey Rescue System and run Restore to factory default. For
details of OneKey Rescue System, see the User Guide for OneKey Rescue
System.
Note:
This will delete all the new data on the system partition (C drive), which is not
recoverable. Make sure to back up your critical data before you perform this action.

Using recovery discs

When you replace a hard disk drive in your computer, you are unable to use the
pre-installed Lenovo OneKey Recovery and OneKey Rescue. However, you can
use the recovery discs that store your backed up data to restore your new hard
drive to a previous backup status.
Note:
You can create recovery discs by burning the backup image to a CD/DVD as
recovery discs. For details of Create recovery discs, see the User Guide for
OneKey Rescue System.
When you use the recovery discs to boot your computer, the system will enter
the user interface for system recovery automatically. Please follow the prompt to
insert the backup discs to complete the whole recovery process.
Note:
The recovery process might take up to 2 hours.
