Restoring Your Operating System  
Dell Factory Image Restore
CAUTION: Using Dell Factory Image 
Restore permanently deletes all data on 
the hard drive and removes any programs 
or drivers installed after you received your 
computer. If possible, back up the data 
before using this option. Use Dell Factory 
Image Restore only if System Restore did 
not resolve your operating system problem.
NOTE:
 Dell Factory Image Restore may 
not be available in certain countries or on 
certain computers.
NOTE: If Dell Factory Image Restore is 
not available on your computer, use Dell 
DataSafe Local Backup (see “Dell DataSafe 
Local Backup” on page 61) to restore your 
operating system.
You can use Dell Factory Image Restore only 
as the last method to restore your operating 
system. This option restores your hard drive 
to the operating state it was in when you 
purchased the computer. Any programs or files 
added since you received your computer—
including data files—are permanently 
deleted from the hard drive. Data files include 
documents, spreadsheets, e‑mail messages, 
digital photos, music files, and so on. If possible, 
back up all data before using Dell Factory Image 
Restore.
