When you create recovery media, only the operating system files, 
applications, and drivers originally shipped with the computer are 
backed up to the external media and can be restored from this media. 
Any files that you created are not backed up on the recovery media. 
You will need to separately back up the files you created; for more 
information, see 

.

When you create recovery media, the system will prompt you to 
insert several blank DVDs or connect one or more USB flash drives 
of a certain minimum capacity to your computer. The amount of 
space required for storing the recovery files varies by computer 
model. Follow the procedure below to determine how much space 
you will need for storing your system’s recovery files.

To create recovery media:

Click the Start button and, in the Search field, type Recovery 
Media Creator. In the list that appears above, click on your 
selection.

The TOSHIBA Recovery Media Creator dialog box displays.

Select DVD or USB Flash from the drop-down list, depending 
on the type of external media you want to use.

Check the Information area of the dialog box to determine the 
number of DVDs you will need and/or the minimum amount of 
storage space required for copying your system’s recovery files 
to USB flash drive(s).
