The Product Recovery function has been removed from this system

I get the following error when I try full system restore - "The Product Recovery function has been reomed from this system"?
How can I fix this?

welcome to the forum:
Have you made a recovery media before this problem occured??? if you haven't you may need to call Lenovo and ask for a set of recovery disks, or just use your own XP/Vista OS you got from somewhere, and load it on your machine then enter you own serial number that come with your machine.
Then proceed to download the various softwares and drivers applicable to your machine, the most important that you won't have is the predesktop area, if you think this is unacceptable then call Lenovo and obtain recovery media from them (a nominal handling and service charge of around 50 USD will be charged).

  • SL500, Product recovery function has been removed from this sytem

    I upgraded my SL500 from Vista to windows 7 OS several years ago and lately the OS has been acting weird (freezing, very slow at times) so I am thinking something is corrupted somewhere and want to restore it back to the manufacturers state.  However, when I try to do this through rescue and recovery, it tells me that the recovery function has been removed from the system.  I'm assuming that when I upgraded from Vista that R&R was no longer compatible so I installed version 4.5.  My laptop did not come with backup OS disks and was told that this was the way to restore the system back to the factory state.  How do I do this if I'm getting this message?

    try this. If this don't work then you would to reinstall the OS using the T43 recovery media disk set.

    If you do not have, or remember, the passcode for Restrictions, the only option available to you is to reset the device to factory settings via itunes.

  • Firefox will not start, the error message says it has been removed from my system - although I didn't take it off.

    Firefox worked fine for me last night, today when I tried to open it the error message read that windows could not find the file and firefox was probably removed from my system, thus why it wouldn't work. I tried running the program and starting a new profile, but no firefox files seem to be left.

  • Mp_statusreceiver directory over 50GB - MP has been removed from this server, but not completely?

    I had a server run out of disk space today.  Digging in, the ccm mp_statusreceiver directory had 650,000 files in it, over 50GB in size.  From what I understand, I think that folder is queuing up messages to go from a management point to the primary
    server, but the server in question had it's management point removed a couple of weeks ago.  It seems like it's still gathering data to send, but not sending it to the primary server, and filling up the drive.
    If that's the case, then it seems the management point didn't actually get removed from the server, even though it's no longer listed in the config manager console as a management point.  (The server still has a DP on it.)
    How can I clean up whatever remnants of the MP are installed on this server?

    Hi,
    Yes, you need a path for mp.msi. I saw that is located at C:\Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\bin\X64.

  • The "play all" option has been removed from music on Genres, Albums or Artist

    When I am in the mood for certain genres such as classical or R&B, I used to be able go straight to the genre and at the very top of all the songs in that genre I could choose "play all". However, since this last update, that option has disappeared.  I tried using Siri by making requests like "play classical" but as we all know, Siri can be testy most times and it gets really frustrating.
    Apple, please bring back this option, we all don't always just want to listen to playlists.

    If I turn it off can I still sync new music that I buy and want on all devices?

  • Hi. the email application has been removed from my ipad. I don't have back up so how can I get it back?

    Hi. the email application has been removed from my ipad. I don't have back up so how can I get it back?

    It is not possible to remove the Mail app (or any other of the bundled apps) from the iPad. It's probably been moved to another Home screen or inadvertently placed in a folder. If you can't find it, you can reset the Home screens in the General -> Reset preferences.

  • Recovery partition has been removed

    Hi sir
     I recently purchased a HP pavilion g-1202 TX series, I have installed Windows 7 64-bit OS, I found that I had only single drive i.e. C: for use, thought of creating another partition and shrunk the C drive, after this I found that HP RECOVERY MANAGER SAYS "Recovery partition has been removed - the recovery media creation option is no longer available"
    Then again I tried expanding the C: drive back to its old stage, even then I found the same error, Now how can I get back HP RECOVERY.? and create Recovery Partition?

    if you havent created the recovery media already from your computer, there is only option to get media from HP.
    contact HP to order Recovery media. in most countries you can order it online, else contact HP phone support.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=bph07143
    if no  option to order media for your country, contact country HP support.
    visit www.hp.com and select country from the left botttom. now select contact HP or connect with HP. reach support to get a set of recovery media to make your computer recover and work as factory install.
    hope it helps. Good Luck !!!

  • "Recovery Partition has been Removed" Message in Recovery Media Creation

    HP Pavilion G4 2205tx - C5j09PA#UUF
    Windows 8 64-bit
    "Recovery Partition has been Removed" Message in Recovery Media Creation.
    i bought My new HP pavilion G4 laptop just two days ago and didnt change any thing in two Drives named Drive C: for windows  and D: for HP Recovery.
    now i want to Make a Recovery Disk with HP Recovery Manager Software.
    but it show a Massage: "Recovery Partition has been Removed" in Recovery Media Creation Section.
    in My Computer Recovery Partition is Almost Full (3.26G of 25.5G is Free) . so i think Recovery files present there .
    i haven't any Access to HP for Buy recovery disk or Call Support.
    Thanks

    I don't know why your PC is saying your partition is gone - you're right, it doesn't look gone. I do know that if you use the Support Assistant to make backup copies of your Recovery Disks and Then instruct it to remove the recovery partition to give you more space on the hard drive, it will delete the HP factory image of Windows 8 from the recovery partition and leave the normal Windows repair tools behind.
    There are tools however that allow you to create your own recovery partition complete with these Windows repair tools and a new image of your instalation so you can restore from that. You could use this tool: Windows 7/8 - OEM Recovery Partition Creator found here: http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/21978-Win​dows-7-8-OEM-Recovery-Partition-Creator but thats a lot of work and it would be faster and easier just to backup your data and restore from your HP recovery disks you made from Support Assistant. If you didn't make the disks, HP may opt to send you a copy.. they do not normally do this but I have read that some people have good luck getting a free copy of the media from HP.. otherwise they want you to buy the recovery disks ($40.00) . I suppose it depends on the exact circunstances of your situation.
    Another solution is to use Macrium Reflect Free Edition to ghost or clone your system. You can then restore your whole system even with your custom programs installed, to the exact state it was in when you made the backup image. ( this may take several dvd's) I suggest you go this route because restoring your system with Macrium Reflect is Much faster than restoring from the HP Recovery Disks. Even if you do obtain another copy of the Recovery Disks, you should use this tool to make another backup that you can customize to your liking. Your re-installs will be faster, they will already have your chosen software installed, and you will save wear and tear on your HP Recovery Disks.  You can then safely delete the recovery partition to gain back that space on your hard drive (since you cannot access it anyway, you won't need that space being taken up).  BUT.. you cannot restore from UEFI Mode which is what HP ships with. You have to go into your Bios settings, and switch to Legacy Bios mode, (which disables Secure Boot) FIRST or else the Macruim recovery boot disk will not load to install the recovery image. After the system re-installs you can go back into bios settings and disable Legacy bios and re-enable secure Boot if you like. ( Windows 8 will load in both UEFI mode with secure boot enabled or Legacy bios mode.. it's your choice. UEFI mode will load faster but it will cause problems if you want to dual boot the system with another OS)  Hope this helps.

  • Goods receipt when PO creator has been removed from org structure ?

    Hello in my organisational structure PPOMA_BBP, i have 2 users, X and Y.
    X has created a PO in the SRM portal.However , X has been removed from the org. structure.
    Is it possible for Y to make the goods recept( that is , Y logs in the portal and makes the goods receipt) ?

    Hi
    Did you try to delete the user ? Did you get any error message?
    Note 1148837 - SRM user cannot be deleted
    When trying to delete an SRM user the system will check if there are still
    related SRM documents in the system. If there are active documents in the
    system the deletion is not possible. This is the correct system behaviour.
    But even if all related SRM documents are archived the deletion is
    sometimes not possible, because there are residual entries in table
    CRMD_PARTNER linked to this user.

    Cause and Prerequisites
    Solution
    The attached report PARTNER_SET_DELETE will display in simulation mode all
    residual entries in table crmd_partner with invalid item or header links

  • After upgrading to APEX 4.1 the database management GUI has been removed

    I've succesfully upgrated to APEX 4.1 on my database 10gXE
    The only problem is that now the database management GUI (Usage Monitor section) has been removed from APEX and I'd like to keep on dealing with DBA activities as before. How is it possibile? Now can I handle DBA activities only by using SQL*Plus and SQL Developer?
    Thanks!

    Hello Mark,
    unfortunately, that management GUI is an XE specific application build into the APEX version that shipped with XE. So basically, what you experience is correct: After an APEX upgrade, you can't use it anymore, because the "generic" APEX versions are not branded for XE.
    There is a theoretic possibility of using the command line exporter to export that management application from the old APEX instance before upgrading (or using a different XE instance that still has it) and import it to the upgraded APEX instance. But I would not recommend to do that, as APEX itself has changed a lot from the 2.2-branch that XE 10.2 shipped with to the 4.1 you use now. This can cause severe issues when using that application in 4.1, especially concerning the APEX management part of that application.
    Now can I handle DBA activities only by using SQL*Plus and SQL Developer?I'd recommend that. And I really think SQL Developer has become very handy for that purpose compared with the version that was out when XE 10.2 was released...
