HDD data recovery after HP F10 system restore.

Asked by Johnny_Ringo in Backup & Restore Software, Miscellaneous Hardware, Computer Hard Drives

Tags: , , , ,

I've read that there's no easy way to recover your data after an F10 system restore on an HP machine.  That can NOT be true!!   If it is, curse you HP!!!    Why would they make a single key that destroys your data??  After the restore completes, there are still programs installed that were there before.  It just looks like the profiles in "documents and settings" are gone.  It doesn't look like a full format was done on the partition.

What does the HP F10 system restore do?  Does it blow away the partition?  Does it format the partition? Does it convert it to FAT32, restore, then back to NTFS?  Does it ZIP up the profiles under "Documents and settings" and put them somewhere?
