Is it possible to download these applications? I assume that my installations of these programs are corrupted, so that I have to re-install them. Could anyone please help?

  • How to reset password in Lenovo's Rescue and Recovery?

    Hi all!
    Here's my problem. Recently I have discovered that I have forgot my password for Lenovo's Rescue and Recovery. I've supposed that when I select "Protect your backups with a password" option, I could change my password for every new backup, whenever I remember my old password or not, but it seems not. So now I couldn't restore my previous backup and couldn't make a new one. Is there any option to reset the password?
    Thanks and sorry for my English

  • Error 25014 when trying to install Lenovo Thinkvantage Rescue and Recovery! Please help!

    Hi there! I recently restored my laptop with a general copy of Windows 7 pro 64 bit. I had to redo all the drivers and software (of course). I had installed Rescue and Recovery before but had never used it. I tried to reinstall it today and it kicks back every time with the same error message (error 25014 code=6)! I had installed linux but deleted it and installed Windows again. I also have a 21gb partition not even being used ( i have no clue how to combine them). Any advice as to how to get it working will be appreciated! Thanks for your help in advance!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Error 25014 rc=6 is error installing the RNR boot manager. 
    Provide some information:
    (1)Did your machine ship from Lenovo, with Lenovo factory system? If so what operating system was installed? vista, windows 7 home, pro etc? This would install with 3 partitions: system_drv, Lenovo recovery, (C). 
    (2)you state: I recently restored my laptop with a general copy of Windows 7 pro 64 bit
    Does this mean you DID not do a Lenovo factory restore, but actually installed a retail version of win7 pro?
    I will assume win7 pro retail for now.
    (3)you state: I had installed Rescue and Recovery before but had never used it. 
    Was this in the past, lets say, on a factory shipped Lenovo system?
    (4)you state: had installed linux but deleted it and installed Windows again. I also have a 21gb partition not even being used 
    ===
    It appears to me, your HDD had a system on it.  I see Ubuntu mentioned in your other posts. Your HDD had multiple parttions on it, including  the 21GB partition. Then you decided to install a retail version of windows 7 pro.
    During a install of retail windows, you have to pay close attention as to where it will install.
    http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1649-clean-install-windows-7-a.html
    Note steps 7 and 8.
    It appears you did the windows install ON TOP of existing HDD, with preexisting partitions.
    ===
    Rc=6
    The simple answer is RNR is already installed.  Did you uninstall RNR before the install?
    The complex answer:
    When RNR install went to add its entries to boot manager,BCD (boot control data), it did NOT like the contents of the BCD, ie other entries parked in the BCD,ie, Linux. It expects to have 2 BCD slots used, windows and windows RE.
    ===
    Give this some thought. See if it matches your situation.
    ==
    I would erase the HDD via a standalone utility, then install win 7 pro retail, and all issues should clear up. 
    This Erase/delete can be done during windows install.  see steps 7 and 8 above.

  • Rescue and Recovery tool - problem with recovering files stored on USB memory stick

    I recently had to use the Lenovo Care Rescue and Recovery tool to restore my 300 N200 to a previously backed up state.
    As part of the Rescue and Recovery I selected the option to save user data in My Documents to a USB memory stick before restoring to the backup. This seemed to be successful (tool confirmed that 300MB of files were saved). But when I wanted to restore the files from the USB memory stick back to the laptop none of the folders/files is visible.
    I checked the memory status of the USB memory stick and this confirms that 300MB space is taken up - but no files visible!!!
    Can anyone help??

    Hi Bob,
    which version of client security do you have?
    From Lenovo site: "Rescue and Recovery 4.1 is only compatible with Client Security Solution 8.0 or later."
    or
    have you tried uninstalling 4.0 and then 4.1 new?

  • Rescue and Recovery 4.52 - Makes Full Image Backups?

    So, this may seem like a simple question to some, but I can not find a conclusive answer yet.
    I have Lenovo's Rescue and Recovery 4.52 - Windows 7 (64 bit) for my Lenovo T540.  Will Rescue and Recovery 4.52 create a full image backup such that if in the event my hard drive crashes, I can reinstall the entire operating system, programs, etc at one time, without having to reinstall individual software programs?
    I just don't want to install Rescue and Recovery 4.52 because it is a large program, without it being able to do a full image backup.
    Thanks

    In my personal opinion, Rescue and Recovery is obselete.  For Win7 and later, my advice is to use Windows built-in backup and restore.  You can create both a complete system image (what you are asking about), and also backup individual files/folders in your libraries.
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/produc​ts/features/backup-and-restore
    Rescue and Recovery was great for XP and earlier OS when there wasn't any built-in backup and restore functions.  But for Win7 and later, my advice is to use the OS built-in feature.  Hope this helps.

  • Can't restore my system on new computer using rescue and recovery

    Hi there,
    Yesterday I got my Thinkpad Edge stolen from my apartment. I had been keeping backups of my system on external USB HDD  using lenovo's rescue and recovery tool. Today I got a new Thinkpad edge and been runing the rescue and recovery tool but I am unable to see my backups. What can I do? How do I recover my info? Please HELP!

    Go to Solution.

    How awesome that you took the time to answer and that you knew the answer. THANK YOU! I called lenovo support and they told me that if I didn't see the backups they were gone for good...that I had probably not saved them properly in the first place. I went to 2 computer technicians who were charging me as much as $400 and weren't sure they could fix the problem. The key thing in your answer, was "click on the checkbox that lets you see all your backups"...I had missed that before. 
    So now I'm finished running a full system restore. However, now when I power up my machine it tells me that the operating system is missing. Is there anyway to fix that? My previous machine was a thinkpad edge 14, this one is a thinkpad edge e420...is that why is not recognizing the operating system? In the meantime, I'm again running the rescue and recovery software from a CD to copy the files in the restored local hard drive to an external location...hope that made sense.

  • Restore from Rescue and Recovery 4.1 FAILED

    The machine is a Thinkpad T43 running XP. Rescue and Recovery 4.1 backing up to a network share.
    Last night, while using nCleaner, I accidentally wiped 30% of my C: partition (I have two: C and D). Since I run a full weekly backup to a network share using Rescue and Recovery 4.1 (RR4.1), I used RR4.1 to do a full restore (via the "simple" interface), however it not only didn't work, it made things worse!
    It seems that while R&R 4.1 recovered the programs that had gotten wiped out on the C partition, it deleted almost everything in the C:\Documents and Settings folder (profile information, settings, Thunderbird mail, etc). It also cleaned out my entire D partition!
    R&R 4.1 seems to be gone now, BTW (or it's hidden somewhere and I can't find it).
    I'm thinking of installing version 4.2 + the patch and trying to restore again.  Any idea what I can try at this point?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Can't Uninstall Rescue and Recovery on my Lenovo 3000N100 laptop, using XP

    Hi yesterday I tried to update to Rescue and Recovery 4.21, but didn't uninstall my previous version. However  when I was trying to install the 4.21 it asked me if I want to replace this file with another and I said yes to all.  When I did try to  uninstall my old version it said installation source not available, try looking for Rescue and Recovery.msi . I tried that but same thing happened, so I deleted those .msi files, and now it says program  program trying to use is on a network that is unavailable. I just want to uninstall it but I cant.
    Before I even tried to update it, Rescue and Recovery wouldn't even open. It say the current version of Rescue and Rocovery on my computer is 3.01.1037.00. It also said last used was back in 06 and I know iv used and updated this program before that. Is there a way to uninstall this program without using the add/remove tool?? Is this fixable?

    The only chance to perform factory recovery is if you have Lenovo_Recovery partition with several .wim files on that. But it seems they are absent. So contact with Lenovo support in your country and purchase recovery disks.

  • How to download Rescue and Recovery

    I've a K330B with Win7, 64bit. Since the stock Rescue and Recovery does not allow to back-up the 25GB of the service partition, I tried using the Rescue and Recovery for an Ideapad instead. It messed things up for me. So I went back to the system restore point, prior to installing the version for the ideapad.
    Now my Rescue and Recovery won't work. It crashes each time I try to run it. I need to re-install it. I can not find the Rescue and Recovery software for a K330B Desktop with Win7 Home Premium, 64bit, anywhere on the Lenovo support site.
    Please help.

    Hi, divasthapa
    When you press Enter at the Lenovo screen, what are the options that appear on the menu? There should be one for BIOS, one to resume normal setup, etc. But there should also be something about recovering your system or something along those lines.
    Thanks in advance,

  • Problem with the "lenovo Rescue And Recovery" system. (lenovo 3000 N500).

    hi!
    yesterday i ran Kaspersky virus scan tool and it detect file named "tvtfilter.sys" as suspicious file and thefore delet it.
    today when i was restart my laptop, i got error message on startup that say:
    Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Runtime Error! "C:\Program Files\Lenovo\Rescue and Recovery\rrservice.exe"  abnormal program termination. 
    after some google search i've understand that "tvtfilter.sys" was critical file of "Rescue And Recovery" system.
    so, any one with "Rescue And Recovery" running on his laptop can upload for me this file?
    it's located in "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DIRVERS\" and it's name is "tvtfilter.sys"
    thank you!
    BTW, ive tried to re-install it but it wont let me because of some error message

    Hi eitrnel,
    Just a thought: give a try to un-intsall the Rescue and Recovery from the Control Panel first before re-installing it.

    The only other option, before calling service and ordering recovery disks, is to try the Rescue and Recovery - Recovery repair diskette. And yes, a floppy drive will be required.

  • Help with Lenovo Rescue and Recovery 4.31

    Hello,
    I work for a company that uses Ghost images for deploying laptops. We have recently decided to try the Lenovo Rescue and Recovery software built in with the new T520s when doing our local backup before sending the laptop out to the user.
    What we decided to try is building the base image, creating the backup locally on the computer using R&R, dumping the image to our server using Ghost and then imaging other laptops with that image.
    Our reasoning for creating the local backup first, is that time is not that big of an issue when creating the initial image, and neither is imaging other laptops because we create spares that we have built and ready to go out. What we would then do is apply any updates since the laptop was imaged, and have R&R create an incremental backup again, which would only take a few minutes and the laptop would be ready to ship.
    Upon using this method, we have found that you cannot view the original first backup created in R&R on a laptop that it was not created with. The backup content is there, as the drive space is used and booting into a DOS prompt and browsing the C:\RRbackups\SZ\<UID>\ folder shows the data.
    What I'm looking to know is how the R&R software generates that UID, and if anything can be done to allow the other laptops to recognize, whether it's rename the folder with a UID that the new laptop is going to use, or if it's something within the software files that's changable. Or even the registry.
    Any ideas or suggestions would be great.
    Thanks!

    kylejg, welcome to the forum,
    R&R is a little system specific. How many systems are you expecting to deploy using the method you describe?
    It might be worth taking a look at the "Big Brother" of R&R namely Image Ultra Builder as it should be able to, with ease, realise exactly that which you are aiming for.

  • T61 Lenovo Rescue and Recovery BSOD

    Hi,
    I've got a problem booting into the Lenovo Rescue and Recovery partition.
    System is a T61 (64665DG) with Rescue and Recovery 4.21.1016.00
    I receive the following BSOD message:
    A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage.
    If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:
    Check for viruses on your computer. Remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers. Check your hard drive to make sure it is properly configured and terminated. Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption, and then restart your computer.
    Technical information:
    ***STOP: 0x0000007B (0xF78D6528,0xC0000034,0x00000000,0x00000000)
    It seems to be a problem with the AHCI controller not being supported. When I switch the SATA Controller Mode from AHCI to Compatibility in the BIOS it then successfully boots into the Rescue and Recovery environment.
    Why is it missing the correct AHCI driver? It used to work fine with the older version of Rescue and Recovery in AHCI mode. Is there a fix available for the Rescue and Recovery software to allow you to run it without having to put the SATA controller in AHCI mode?

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thanks both for your replies. The inability for it to boot the Rescue and Recovery partition in AHCI mode persuaded me to examine the contents of the partition for anything obvious amiss. Using Linux I was able to mount the FAT partition and have a nose around. In the /minint/system32 directory it's got a number of sub-directories for the Intel Iastor driver - that used to access the HD in AHCI mode. I couldn't find any reference to that in txtsetup.sif and the winpeoem.sif file was empty. After some Googling I found out that you can easily load additional mass storage drivers using winpeoem.sif.
    IBM have a program called rrutil.exe that allows you to access the RnR partition from within Windows, it's part of the Rescue and Recovery Administrator Tools.
    To modify winpeoem.sif first install the RnR admin tools and open a command prompt window in the install location - C:\SWTOOLS\TOOLS\Z652_Admin016. Make sure the C:\Temp directory exists and is EMPTY - this is very important. You then need to create a "getlist.txt" file:
    echo \minint\system32\winpeoem.sif > getlist.txt
    retrieve the file from the RnR partition
    rrutil.exe -g getlist.txt C:\Temp
     type
    notepad C:\Temp\minint\system32\winpeoem.sif
    and paste in
    [Version]
    signature="$Windows NT$"
    [OemDriverParams]
    OemDriverRoot=""
    OemDriverDirs=IASTOR
     upload the changes with (this will write everything from Temp to the RnR partition!)
    rrutil.exe -p C:\Temp
    Or you could just modify /minint/system32/winpeoem.sif directly in Linux without messing about with the rrutil.exe.
    With this small modification to winpeoem.sif I was able to successfully boot into the Lenovo Rescue and Recovery partition with AHCI mode enabled. I haven't tried reinstalling windows xp with this fix.
