Does any1 know how to launch HDD recovery?
I re-installed windows and lost all programs and files. However they are now saved in c drive along with HDD recovery in D Drive . How do i launch these programs from the c or d drives?
I have a toshiba l300 laptop.
Most likely, you boot up and choose the recovery instead of windows to boot, and then it will unpack itself
when your laptop boots, you may temporarily see a menu for windows, or the recovery partition, although it may be set to move straight into windows without waiting for an answer. All i could suggest for that is to keep an eye out when you boot, and if you do see it, quickly use the arrow keys to choose it.
According to a toshiba forum, looks you might need a CD that came with your laptop to activate the recovery partition, have a look for one, or download a replacement!
Hope this was of remote help
