entranceUSB system recovery disk. What do we need? Windows drives management
If something else happened to the Windows operating system and it does not start, but it does not work in any way, that is, a good output from the position is to restore the system from the backup (if you, of course, previously created it). However, to restore Windows if it does not load at all, a special recovery disc will be required that allows windows startup Download a special shell (program) where you can run the system recovery process. In this article, I will show how to create recovery discs for Windows 8 and Windows 10 operating systems standard means, i.e. right from the Windows itself.
In both systems, the disk image can be recorded directly on the USB flash drive, and not on the disk, which is very convenient. Especially since the discs are less and less popular every year and will gradually cease to be used at all. After all, now most medium-sized laptops are available without a drive.
After writing the program to the USB flash drive, you will need to configure the computer to start exactly from the flash drive, and not from the hard disk. How to configure a computer load with the desired device Tasted in the article:
Creating a recovery disk (CD / DVD and USB) for Windows 10
Windows 10 allows you to create a recovery disk directly embedded in it with means, i.e., without having to download and install something. Therefore, it is the easiest way to create a recovery disk.
Show I will be on the example of creating a USB flash drive to restore (if you want to write exactly CD / DVD Disc For recovery, then).
So, the sequence of actions is as follows:
Everything, flash drive ready! Now you can use it to restore Windows from the image if some problem arises and you will not be able to download it.
Record recovery disk on CD / DVD disc
If you still need for any reason to burn the recovery disk not on a USB flash drive, but on a CD or DVD disk, then you need to do the following:
Creating a recovery disk for Windows 8
Through operational windows system 8 standard tools can only be written USB flash drive. CD or DVD disk to record can not be recorded.
The principle of recording a recovery disk on a USB flash drive in Windows 8 exactly the same as in Windows 10 (). The only difference is that in the search you need to type "Recovery Disk" (1) and open the "Creating Recovery Disk" (2) found:
Conclusion
Recovery disk recording can help you very much if you have already created your Windows image (i.e. it backup) And have access to this image. In this case, with the "drop" of Windows, i.e., if it is impossible to load it in any ways, you will help you out the created backup of Windows and the created recovery disk! It will be better if the flash drive (or disc) for recovery will always be with you, wherever you work with a laptop. For example, we went somewhere with a laptop to work, take a recorded disk recovery with you, and you never know what :)
When booting from a flash drive, you can also return to one of the previous Windows states (to the old checkpoint), i.e. at that time, when there were no problems in Windows. Such an option can also help you return the system to life, even without the need to restore from the image.
What do we need?
1. CD / DVD Disk (Double)
2. Flashka
3. Two programs: Ultraiso, and Daemon Tools..
Why do you need a disk recovery?
- Restore the system out iSO Imagea system.
- Restore Windows starting.
- Raise the system to the last working configuration.
Create a disc recovery on a blank.
1. Go to the Start menu-\u003e My programs-\u003e Maintenance-\u003e Archiving and recovery.Or create a new task "RecDisc" in the application "Create a new task". To do this, open the task manager, in the "File" menu, select a new task (execute) ", and in the new window enter the name of the application" RecDisc ".
The Create Recove Disc application will be downloaded on the screen.
Insert an empty blank into the drive, and press the Create Disc button.
After creating a Windows 7 recovery disk, you will receive a notification of this type.
If the flash drive is not needed, you can finish on it, since the files to restore the system are already on the CD / DVD blank.
Create an ISO image of a recovery disk.
To solve this task, you can use a multitude of programs, such as Imgburn, or Daemon Tools, do it with Daemon.2. Go to the section "New Image". Select the way to save the ISO image and prescribe a name, for example "windows7_recovery.iso". Press the start button.
We still wait for the program to create an ISO image.
As soon as the program creates a disk image, you will receive a notification, and here is the picture.
We write an ISO image of Windows 7 recovery on a USB flash drive.
I have repeatedly wrote in my articles how to make a bootable flash drive, in the last article on this topic I am L, but this mini utility refuses to perceive the ISO file created in Daemon Tools.Therefore, in the creation boot flash drive I helped me.
1. Start the Ultraiso application, go to the File menu-\u003e Open, open the ISO image of Windows 7 on the disk.
2. Go to the "Self-loading" menu, and select the menu item as in the picture "Write a Hard Disk Image".
In the window that opens, select a flash drive for writing, and click the Write button!
To check the bootable media, reboot the computer and perform booting from the flash drive.
That's it, boot disk Windows 7 recovery is created. You do not want to create, download for free. Judi.
Windows 7 is not always able to cure standard methods Without use of additional bootable media. The most convenient option is to use as the last loading flash drive, which is written to both the OS own means and third-party utilities. Also before carrying out the recovery procedure, it is necessary to prepare BIOS accordingly.
Creating a Windows 7 boot flash drive
The easiest way to make the boot drive offers Microsoft in its windows utility 7 USB / DVD DOWNLOAD TOOL. She downloads from the company's website and requires the installation also Microsoft. Net Framework. 2.0 and ISO-image OS. To create boot media Using this utility, do the following:
This is just one way to create a USB drive to solve system problems. It can be recorded with ultraiso programs - Although paid, but with a trial period.
Using Ultraiso for boot drive
After installing and starting the program, the user will need to make a minimum of action to record the installation media:
Prepare a laptop or PC to work with a USB drive
Modern devices allow you not to climb inexperienced users in BIOS to be able to boot not with hard disk. To do this, there is a boot menu, which is usually called by keys F12, F10, F8, etc. (depending on bIOS version and the manufacturer of the board) immediately after switching on. On laptops is used most often F12.
If this mode is not available for you, you will have to change the BIOS settings.
Log in Configuration change window Usually by pressing the DEL key before boot windows. In the window that opens, you will need to select the item that can be called Boot, Boot Menu, Boot Manager, etc., after which change the priority of downloading with HDD to USB.
We restore Windows 7.
After downloading information from the USB drive, the OS installation window opens. You can reinstall the system, but this method you need to save at the most extreme case, since the part or all user information on the disk may not be preserved, and there will be a lot of time for reinstalling. Therefore, first try to restore Windows toolsthat you have:
There are several funds that often help cure the system even with very heavy failures.
Launch restoration
This tool also works in automatic mode and often it happens unable to provide full work. However, it often manages to solve such malfunctions that may occur when installed previous versions OS, for example, XP as a backup along with the "seven".
In this case corresponds to boot record MBR and a newer OS is simply not loaded. After starting this utility, in case of malfunction detection, the user will see the window offering it to eliminate it. After rebooting the system can be run as it should be.
System Restore
This item involves the return of the OS configuration to one of the previously saved states, i.e., you can roll back to the last or earlier control points. For this.
Good toast to everyone, my respected readers, as well as comrades on a computer theme!
Not so long ago, I installed a new Microsoft Operation on my laptop. True, it was a "blocked" assembly, but I quite liked it, however, the problems came from where they were not waiting for them. After a week, Windows just collapsed. Apparently due to the repack curve. And I had to do the restoration of Windows 10 from the flash drive. This process is quite complicated, but important and therefore I decided to describe it in all details. Go!
Which flash drive to do this?
You may seem strange, but under the operating system of the tenth version, not all carriers are optimally suitable. Some are too expensive, other slow, third - elementary do not accommodate the OS itself due to small volume. Today there are many devices on the market, and different forms, and sizes, and degree of protection, but if you want to make a really useful USB flash drive to work with Windows 10, then you need to take the media with the mind.
Especially if you want to achieve comfortable use without data loss.
Transmission speed Data plays an important role. Standard uSB ports 2.0 allow you to move information at 25-30 MB / s. But the new USB 3.0 is issued 115-120 MB / s. Tangible difference, right? Since Operations latest version Large enough, then on high-speed ports it will be installed several times faster. Therefore, if there are those in your laptop, then the flash drive you need to take the one that supports this format.
An excellent choice will be TRANSCEND and ADATA.
Volume. Here is the most interesting. Earlier, for the version 7 version, there was enough media for only 4 gigabytes. But with new grabsami from Microsoft, their last shell added significantly in weight. You can find repacks and 7-8 gigabytes. However, they are strongly compressed, and installing on a computer will take several hours. Consequently, the license image does not fit at all on such a device.
So, it is cost-effective to take a carrier in 16 GB. Otherwise, you can get problems in the subsequent use of the OS. After all, I always recommend installing a system from licensed images, in which information and data packages are not so compressed, and this requires a significant place.
Last, what I want to add to the selection of the carrier - type of shell. Ordinary compact containers break quickly. Once they hit - they remained without a device. But also the trimmed technological gadgets should not be avoided. Conventional flash drives with a cap are perfect. They are cheap, well protected fairly well protected and there is almost nothing to break, except for the memory card itself.
What will required for recovery?
Then here.
As soon as the software boot, check it on viruses using Comodo Internet Security and only then install. Instructions for teapots - Run the downloaded file on behalf of the administrator. Then see this window and click further.
Now button - accept.
Now we remove the tank where I showed and pass on.
Remove daws on the signs and refuse to offer. Do not need additional browsers and starting pages?
As soon as such a sign appeared - the installation is over.
Now swing torrent file The windows itself.
Open it directly through the browser, just click on the icon and the loader itself will be in the queue.
The window will open.
Now carefully. If you have a computer with two or more cores, then you download one of these two files.
And if a laptop with a processor in one core, then one of these.
Now a little about the paired files of each type. Where in the title is Single Russia, there is no language packs other countries, only the Russian Federation. But where he is written by Russian, there are multilingual OS. What to swing - choose yourself. How the download will end go here here. Then press here.
This is a program for creating a bootloader.
Of course, it can be done through command lineBut this option is enough unstable. It is better not to risk.
From the archive we need only this file.
We prescribe the installation path.
Clay - set.
The installation process will go. We wait for his end.
Now just click - complete.
Everything. Now you can start writing an image.
Creating a loading flash drive
So, we open our installed Ultra ISO on the laptop.
Now click " file", and then " open».
Search for downloaded image operating system And choose it.
Now press the self-loading and click the entry image hard disk.
It is important to choose your flash drive in the first line, do not confuse it with optical drive. In the second line, set the USB HDD value, it is suitable for all systems and devices. Then click on record.
In the table that appears, press the button " Yes».
Record will start. If you have a standard device for a port of type 2.0, it will last for quite a long time, you can drink tea and drink tea. And if the medium is high-speed, then it will take this action no more than 10 minutes.
It is important to wait for a complete entry of the recording, otherwise the risk of damaging the data packets, which is why there will be problems with recovery.
At this stage of creating a bootloader is completed.
BIOS setup
Here it is necessary to be attentive and neat. We need to configure through the BIOS download from our carrier. Firmware themselves can be different versions, so I will describe for each type, what and how to do.
Most old type. To go to it, you need to restart the laptop, and then click one of these keys: F1, F2, F10or Del.. There should be such a blue screen.
Now go to this line and click the input.
Moving to the first line to prepare load priorities.
We see this picture. Loading from the flash drive, we have a secondary task, and you need to make it primary.
Keys for manipulation in this environment you can see here.
Move our media to the first position
Now Zhmem. F10. And we see such a rectangle.
And click the key Y.».
Ami Bios.
Keys used for login F1 or F2.. After that we see such a screen.
Right arrow moving to Radel Boot And there we click on the first place to place priorities.
We will see our hard on the first line.
Now change the first line to Floppy Drive. (sometimes system administrators May indicate it in articles like "Flops" or "flopter drive").
Now claster F10. And we go out with the preservation of actions.
UEFI Setup
So, now I will draw how to configure the new BIOS. You can go to it by the same keys that I described above. After opening the interface, first click in the corner Advanced Mode.And then you choose from where to boot.
It happens that the carrier is not immediately determined, so it is necessary to show the program to it manually. We go to the tab Boot. And then B. Boot Options. And set this parameter here.
Zhmem. F10. And come out.
Recovery process
Now a simple sequence of actions. Reboot from the flash drive and see this.
There are two developments of events to your choice. First, click the diagnosis.
In the first case, the system scans all the files and immediately return them to initial stateAs if you only reinstalled your operating system. The second option is more complicated. He opens this submenu.
Restoring a computer from the control point is suitable if such were created. This usually occurs when installing any massive programs, such as office or photoshop. If there are no such, then it will be possible to recover from the moment of installing Windows.
But recovery from the disk image will allow you to use your USB flash drive and spend almost the same clean installation, but much faster, because most of the hard drives are already there, they simply need to be replaced by reference.
Note. To restore the data saving, I advise you to transfer everything files on a virtual storage. There are a lot of them on the network, even search engines offer sufficient space when registering. Use this option. Although the developers say that when recovering data is not erased, everything here depends on how the system behaves.
Conclusion
On this I will finish the article. I have no doubt that it will be useful for you, because now many are moving to new Windows. By the way, here is a video on the topic.
It all clearly and affordably describes. Do not forget that in any case, you will have to change Windows, and the recovery will not always help ultimately be installed from scratch, with the formatting of the hard disk.

Restoring Windows 10 from a flash drive or other third-party media suggests the presence of a predetermined image or a finished installation file (distribution). In addition, the rollback can be carried out in conditions:
- Running operating system (when the problem did not affect the possibility of Windows 10 fully loaded);
- Damaged OS, in the case when windows is not loaded.
Creating an image of Windows 10
Important! If you have a Licensed Windows 1 distribution on a flash drive, a step with creating an image can be skipped and go to another item.
You can create a backup system as follows:
Comment. All actions described above must be performed by the user with administrator rights.
This feature allows you to record the system image on empty disk And further use it to restore. Since we save a copy of Windows 10 on the USB flash drive, we can safely press no.
OS recovery in the running system
If the computer performance dropped noticeably, various glitches appear, part of the folders does not start, but the system has not lost the ability to boot, then the time has come to restore Windows through the user interface.
Procedure:
After clicking, the computer will restart and the action menu will appear before the user through which you can get into the recovery environment. To do this, we go to the diagnosis and on to additional settings:
Click on the system image recovery section and choose your account. If the password is on it, we enter.
Comment. If the password is not, and the system requires, then just click to continue.
Automatically start the PC recovery tool from the created copy of the system. Here the user will be two ways:
- Apply the last image;
- Select another copy from the list.
After that appear extra options rollback. We do not change anything, click Next.
In the next window, click Finish. The warning will pop up that all data will be replaced by files from the image. Agree.
As soon as the procedure is completed, reboot the computer.
The state of the system rolls back at the time of creating an image. Accordingly, all files will be replaced. If on the device there important information or programs installed recently, it is recommended to keep them on the outer carrier.
Rollback of the OS at a critical error
If the critical error has deprived Windows 10 of the ability to boot to user interfaceYou can resort to another way to roll back. To get on the recovery environment in this case in two ways:
- Through the F8 key. Not the most convenient method since accelerated Loading OS (the function began to operate from the "eight") forces to press the key until the logo appears. This is given only a few seconds, which is why to catch the moment is extremely difficult;
- Via disk / flash drive with distribution. When on the flash drive there is an image or installation file windows 10 It is better to use this particular option.
First you need to configure the BIOS to read from the external device. For this:
- In the BIOS environment, go to the "First Boot" parameter. It is possible to find it in the subsections "Boot" or " Boot Device. Configuration ";
- In the found parameter, we assign the value of the flash drive;
- Click F10 and restart the computer.
Comment. In some versions of BIOS, it is necessary not to assign a value, but simply post an external medium for first place.
Once the BIOS is configured, insert a disk or flash drive with a distribution kit and run PC. In the installation window that appears, click Next:
