You can create a recovery USB drive as a backup for the Windows recovery programs. With the recovery
USB drive, you can troubleshoot and fix the problems even if the preinstalled Windows recovery programs
are damaged.

USB drive as a precautionary measure, you can contact Lenovo Customer Support Center and purchase one
from Lenovo. For a list of the Lenovo Support phone numbers for your country or region, go to:
