The recovery image - is a usually 'hidden' file stored on the hard-drive of the computer. It's a copy of the data stored on the hard-drive at the point the computer was assembled. It's designed to 'roll back' the computer to 'as new' status in the event something happens to the operating system.

∙ 8y agoThe Recovery Image on a mass-produced computer (such as from HP, Lenovo, Toshiba, etc.) is an image of the hard drive that includes all the installed software as it was originally delivered from the factory when the machine was new. Using this image will definitely resolve any software issues that may exist but it also removes any data, other programs, updated drivers, or anything else that has been added to the hard drive from the time that the machine was first turned on by the end-user. Therefore, if you have any files, pictures, documents, or anything else that you wish to save, do so before trying to use the factory image. Otherwise, your data will be gone.
If you have any other questions about this or other such issues, feel free to drop me a note. I'm always glad to help.

You can also move the system from a computer with BIOS to a computer with UEFI.As all modern PCs have UEFI, you are not going to have any problems.But if you try to move Windows from a computer with UEFI to a computer with BIOS, it will not work. The system image will not be restored and you will see an error message saying about incompatibility of different versions of microcode.• When the recovery process is successful, the computer will restart and boot the same Windows which you used to create the image.System transfer is shown on the example of Windows 10. In Windows 7, your actions will be the same. Just when you unfold the image on a new PC, the recovery environment interface will be different.
