Hello,

When I went to the Start > All Programs... section, I could find a folder that led me to a driver ( ?) named, I believe, "Empowering..." in order to reset the laptop to "factory" settings.

Today, I can no longer do that. I'm a bit lost...

Could you please help me out?

Thank you. :)

Configuration: Windows 7 / Safari 536.5

    Hello

    See this.

    But you may have deleted the Acer eRecovery Management partition
    Who loves instruction! find the knowledge that comes from reflection!
    PS. Frequently create a restore point! it solves quite a few problems.

    To check if you haven't deleted it, you can right-click on Computer (or My Computer for XP) > manage > storage manager > hard drive
    and your partitions will appear.
    There should normally be one called "RECOVERY".

    Hello,

    Thank you for your help, but I had already found a solution before you intervened. However, I hope that your assistance will be useful to others who find themselves in the same situation that led me to come here.

    I will still provide the steps that helped me get through it. Here they are:

    Start > All Programs > Maintenance > Backup and Restore. This is where you can create a backup and "restore system settings or your computer."

    Best regards.
