Why do I need to create recovery media?

By creating recovery media, you can restore your system and data in case of a hard disk drive failure or system crash, or if you need to replace your HDD or SSD with a new one. In such cases, you can use the recovery media to restore the operating system, drivers, and preinstalled software to their factory-default settings.

How do I create recovery media?

To create recovery media, follow these steps: 1. Connect a USB drive with at least 16 GB capacity to your computer. 2. Open the Create Recovery Media program from the Start menu. 3. Read and accept the license agreement. 4. Follow the on-screen instructions to create recovery media.

Do I need to create recovery media for each computer?

Yes, you need to create recovery media for each Lenovo computer that you own or use, because each computer has its own unique factory-installed recovery partition.

Can I use recovery media created on one Lenovo computer on another Lenovo computer?

No, you cannot use recovery media created on one Lenovo computer on another Lenovo computer, because each computer has its own unique hardware configuration and factory-installed software.

What type of USB drive should I use for creating recovery media?

You should use a USB drive with at least 16 GB of capacity, and choose a USB 3.0 drive for faster data transfer. We recommend using a high-quality branded USB drive to ensure reliability.

How long does it take to create recovery media?

Can I create recovery media if my computer does not have a recovery partition?

No, if your computer does not have a factory-installed recovery partition, you cannot create recovery media with Create Recovery Media. In such cases, you can use other backup and restore software or tools to create a system image or clone your hard drive.

Can I cancel the process of creating recovery media after it has started?

Yes, you can cancel the process of creating recovery media at any time by clicking the Cancel button in the progress window. However, we recommend that you do not cancel the process unless absolutely necessary, because doing so may result in incomplete or corrupted recovery media.
