RESTORING FACTORY CONTENTS.

This error usually means a serious configuration issue with the installed operating system. If you have files currently on the hard drive (pictures, documents, etc.) that you must have, and you don't have a backup of these files separate from the hard drive on the laptop, you may need to have someone with PC knowledge remove the hard drive from the laptop and recover the files manually for you. Otherwise the usual advice is to 'restore' your original state to the laptop, which generally erases all files on the current hard drive and restores the laptop to the way it left the factory. See Laptops and netbooks Flex Series Flex 10 Notebook Lenovo Lenovo Support US or Laptops and netbooks Flex Series Flex 10 Notebook Lenovo Lenovo Support US for examples of how to restore your laptop. Consult the owners manual for which process is best for your machine.

Lenovo care button is the One key restore button on your computer. This is usually located right beside or at the top of the power button. This button will restore the computer back to the factory state.

If the OKR button is failing, then there is a huge possibility that the restoration drive is already corrupted. If you need to restore the computer, you need to use the recovery disk. If you want the OKR software back to the computer, you need to send in the computer to LEnovo depot repair.

Someone might have messed up your harddrive that is why one key recovery is already gone. Hidden harddrive partition will be erased if you installed new windows or repartiotion the harddrive. If you are going to restore the computer back to factory default state, you need to order the disc, If you still wanted to have the hidden partition back to your computer, you need to contact lenovo and send in the computer to repair department for HD re-imaging.

Go to the start menu, and in the search field, type in system restore. then you can choose a point/date that the bluetooth was working and restore to that point.

Turn on your computer. Watch the display carefully while your PC starts. While the initial screen ( LENOVO ) is displayed, press the Lenovo Care button. The Rescue and Recovery workspace opens.

Click Restore your system > Restore my hard drive to the original factory state > follow the instructions on the screen.

If Rescue and Recovery did not launch, the motherboard may need replacing.

Just bought Lenovo S10 and so unlucky that window crashed. So have to restore my Lenovo S10 to factory settings. Can’t really find how ot restore to factory settings in Lenovo S10 from the User Manual. So check from google, after many many search, finally found the solution.
For Lenovo S10 to restore to factory settings follow the steps below:-

• Turn off your Lenovo. (i mean shut down and make sure it’s power off)
• Now press on the “One Key Recovery” key at the top of your Keyboard, your Lenovo S10 should boot up. Else hold down the “One Key Recovery” key until it boot up.
  
• Now you may choose “Restore to factory settings” from the screen and proceed for the restoration.
  ** the restoration will first check if your windows files has been corrupted, if yes, then it will restore it to the original state and no restore is required. else it will continue with the restoration

hi rwestover, to configure this to factory setting, turn off the pc. Then upon turning on the pc, repeatedly press F2, then select Lenovo One Key Rescue system, once there select Lenovo One Key recovery, then select restore to factory default, then click next, then click start to restore from initial state.
