How to reset your laptop to factory defaults using Lenovo OneKey Recovery (OKR)
Facing problems like Operating System corruption, Computer VIRUS, error messages or frequent system disruptions? Restoring the system to factory defaults is a great way to fix these issues. In this video, we will show you how to reset your Lenovo PC to factory defaults. Before you begin the process, make sure you have all your personal data backed up in an external hard drive or USB Flash Drive. This process will erase everything that is on the computer, so it is important that you don’t lose your critical documents, pictures and the applications you have installed. If you have your data backed up, shut down the PC. When the PC is completely turned off, press the Novo Button on your Laptop. Novo button is a small circular button usually near the power button or on the left side of the laptop. The system will power on to display the Novo Button Menu. Use your arrow keys to select System Recovery and press Enter. The system will boot to the recovery partition on your hard drive and show the “one key recovery” screen. To begin, we need to choose the image. The default option is to restore from Initial Backup with the image created at the factory. If you had additionally created a backup image on a different partition or on a USB Hard Drive, then connect them to the PC and select the option “Restore from user’s Backup”. In the “Select source image” drop down, select the partition where the backup image is stored. If you did not create a backup, then select the default option and click Next.
