Error runtime. rescue and recovery. wizrr.exe

hi all hope you can help me. I'm trying to restore a system with Rescue and Recovery but to get 5% gives me an error "Runtime error c: \ Program Files (x86) \ Lenovo \ Rescue and Recovery \ wizrr.exe"
Tell me know how to fix it. Thank you.

To recap:
(1) the machine seems to be fellow student on your team with a W520
(2) said machine will boot to windows OK (ie, the restore failure did not mess C drive up, it boots)
(3) user add new printer /drivers to machine, which dont work and wants to go back to earlier backup of system
(4) RNR version is 4.5.2 and backups are to USB
==
Technical:
RNR standalone does the restore. This software is found:
A. windows RNR. order the restore. It will switch to standalone RNR partition (on his W520). The order is placed on windows RNR, after selecting restore point. <<< this will be automatic, after order placed. It will reboot to the PDA, progress 5% screen.
B. Fellow user booted to the standalone RNR at boot time (PF11, thinkvantage blue button) AND had to go thru panels to order up the restore.
C. User had the USB plugged in. The BIOS boot sequence has USB first,and it booted standalone RNR software from the USB,then user had to go thru select panels.
D.Standalone RNR CD boot. This would require RNR, windows, create RESCUE media, and CD first in the boot sequence.
==
Regardless of a, b, c,d. Have user use ? of standlaone program to see the verison of the standalone software. The standalone version will be slightly different then the windows platform version (like .0 vs .1 in version number).
==
I suspect user booted from the USB which had an old standalone RNR version. version mismatch.
1) Remove USB in BIOS from the start up boot sequence
2)Order restore via windows platform, it will switch to PDA on HDD -or- boot to pda(pf11) and order restore via panels.
3)I also suspect when user upgraded to 4.5.2, the USB was NOT connected, thus the RNR standalone boot software on USB is older release. BUT the backups are 4.5.2 This not a issue NOW. Later....... Just RNR , create rescue media,point to the USB. Make sure the DO NOT DESTROY flag is set (default). This will upgrade the USB standlone RNR to 4.5. 2.

Post back if this matches the scenario.

Rescue and Recovery will not open

I wanted to back up my system to an external hard drive after finding out that it hasn't been backed up in over 200 days even though when prompted periodically , I select the option to "back up now." However, it seems that neved did back up. When I tried to run Rescue and Recovery (4.21) from Start - All Programs - ThinkVantage - Rescue and Recovery, nothing happenend. I restarted my computer and this message came up when it rebooted :
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
"Runtime Error!
C:\Program Files\Lenovo\Rescue and Recovery\rrpservice.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

I do not recall 100% but I think I got a very similar error message, only worst situation. I had to replace HDD because the original HDD crashed. I installed a new HDD and when I went to re-store with the ORGINAL IBM LENOVO RnR + Product CD's, 7 in all, I got something like you got. I called Lenovo and someone in the service department told me that because my T60 was out of warrantly I needed to buy a new set of CD's ! Interesting hey, I told him that the Original CD's that came with the T60 had corrupted files and this from day 1. Anyway, long story short NO WIN XP as of yet. Good thing there is UBUNTU Linux. Good luck with issue.

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.

Recovering backup data from a previous version of Rescue and Recovery

Dear All,
can you please advice how can I restore the system&data (Windows 7)
I created recovery CDs and did the full backup (USB drive)
I changed disk (diagnostic reported warnings for the old one)
I recovered system from CD
I wanted to recover full backup/image from USB drive, however
after reboot R&R 4 starts and error message "... backup taken with previous version..." is displayed.
I wanted to recover single file (R&R 4.31) from USB drive, however
error message "The list box identifierwas not found" is displayed
What shall I do? upgrade R&R to 4.51? downgrade R&R to 4 (where are downloads)? something else? what R&R versions exist for W7?
thanks in advance.

Thank you for coming back to my issue.

Rescue and Recovery failed destination network location can no longer be reached

W510, running Windows 7 Pro SP1, updated with ThinkVantage including BIOS 1.37 along with Rescue and Recovery 4.31 yesterday. Using Backup locations "Local hard drive" had not problem, but when it was set to "Network", it gave me "The backup failed because the destination network location can no longer be reached.". Prior to running RR, I manually mounted the shared drive on W510 and could read and write files. The user that mounted the shared drive was not "Administrator" but has Administrator privilege. The network shared drive was a folder on an Windows XP SP3 computer.The shared drive had Full Control granted to Everyone as well as for Sharing. I rebooted W510 before starting RR. After the "network location can no longer be reached" error popped up, a long while later, RR actually wrote some files in the shared drive and then finally it aborted. It created on the shared drive RRBackups\SZ\<UUID>\... (among other folders and files); under <UUID> there's a common\rr.log with:

The events don't make sense:
a) Why would RR says "network location can no longer be reached" - the wording suggests that it was OK, but now it isn't.
b) The br_funcs returns Error 0x501 (NOT_IMPLEMENTED or NOT_SUPPORTED), but RR still attempted to call mapdrv.
c) Apparently mapdrv was successful otherwise it shouldn't try to delete the t0.dat on the shared drive (which didn't exist - hence Error 3 (PATH_NOT_FOUND)) and unless it has reached the remote computer, it wouldn't know the file wasn't there.
I'm curious to find out if anyone has run into this problem and how to fix it.

It errored out after it has already created some folders and files as indicated in the first post.Tried the same steps several times just make sure it was repeatable by closing Rescue and Restore app and starting it again. The network between the share host and my W510 was a direct RJ45 cable connection, so zero hop. In the end I used Windows 7 Backup and Restore to do full backup, using the same \\server\sharename, the network share was mapped without a problem. But then Windows 7 Restore CD wasn't able to map network share - giving me 0x800704cf. Googling shows lots questions raised on this but no fix.
Update:
Last night, I gave it a shot again. For some reason, RR was able to mapped the network share using \\IPaddress\sharename (this time I used a different folder and a diferent sharename). OK great, but after 10 hrs it's at 88% completion, did my math, estimated elasped time is 12 hrs, Wow! The image backup with Windows 7 Backup took 5 hr 51 min with 132GB in the WindowsImageBackup folder. RR is 2x slower!
On the other hand, as it's still running, the est. backup folder size is 106GB. RR does a better job in compression - a 20% reduction in size compared with Windows' at the cost of 2x time.
Going back to the Windows 7 Restore CD 0x80704cf error when mapping the network share, found an Internet user posting that he succeede by providing a NIC driver.

Rescue and Recovery 4.3 on Windows 7 Pro

I've just upgraded my ThinkPad R61 to Win 7 Pro, successfully installed all Win 7 ThinkVantage software and here starts my problem:
When I try to create a backup using RnR 4.3 I get "Gathering system settings and data. Please wait" window, r2r.exe is working for a few minutes and that's it. Nothing more after 11 hours. I thought it may be related to ESET Smart Security, but no.

I have:
1. Instslled a new 160GB, 7200 RPM Lenovo HDD
2. Clean installed Win 7 Ultimate (retail) x64
3. Clean installed all Lenovo and Microsoft Win 7 x64 updates
On my:
Lenovo T61p, T7700 2.4 Ghz, 4 GB Ram
I downloaded Rescue and Recovery..tvtvrnr43_en.exe and saved it to my desktop.
When I go to install the RnR I get the following error message:
"Microsoft Visual C++2005 Redistributal (x64) SP1 needs to be installed before you can install RnR".
One of Microsoft's important updates was the above MS Visual C++ which I installed.
I phoned Lenovo support in Atlanta and they said they offer no support on a retail version of Win 7. They
said that I was "missing some kernal" that came with the original OEM software which isn't on a retail clean
install. I'm baffeled since all other Lenovo Win 7 updates were able to be installed and are working properly.
I'm stuck. Any Suggestions please.

Rescue and Recovery 4.21 - X200 Not Working?

Hi All,
Running an X200 which is going perfectley except I'm unable to make a backup using the Rescue & Recover 4.21 software. I have tried to make a base image to both HDD and USB HDD, it goes through the process until 100% then gives the message : "The backup did not complete successfully" with no other info.
When you go back to check the USB HDD no space has been used.
I have looked up the logs for RR and get this :

I looked into my Event Viewer and got a hint. Also, knowing that my anti-virus program,
BitDefender, has a feature that prevents modification to the registry without permission from
me, and I hadn't been asked for such, I decided to turn that feature off and try again.
That worked, and I now have the latest version of Rescue and Recovery installed.

T61 upgraded to Windows 7, now can't install Rescue and Recovery or Bios update.

I have a T61 6459 CTO that had XP SP3 on it. I upgraded to WIndows 7. I tried to install TVTVRNR450_025en, but I get an error msg "Rescue and Recovery does not support installing from the Operating System which upgrade from a legacy pre-load system." I tried deleting all old RNR and CSS programs in the old files after the install, but nothing seems to work. There is nothing listed in my add/remove programs. My Thinkvantage button doesn't work. How do I remove the old RNR? Should I have done that prior to installing Windows 7? Do I need to re-install my XP backup and start over? My Bios update extracts, but doesn't install. Help!

Hi, FSURN82
I did some research and was able to find this thread from Lenovo Forums. There are a few other people having similar issues. For some, installing an older version of Rescue and Recovery (sometimes even the one for their OS before the upgrade) would work fine. For some, however, they could not get it to work, so they would create backups manually using Windows.
As for the BIOS issue, what version are you currently running and to what version are you trying to upgrade?
Thanks,
Adam

Rescue and Recovery Password not Accepted

There is a previous message with the same title but, it is marked solved. The solution does not work for my machine.
My ThinkPad T2300 (0768 -2UU) has crashed.
When I press F11, the ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 3 screen appears.
- I assume it is Version 3.
The Rescue and Recovery Workspace Logon window then appears. It has  the following fields.
- User Name: AutoFilled with my main ID (Jim).
- Windows Password: blank
- DOMAIN: Autofilled with Lenovo-xxxxxxxx
- Check box: "I forgot my Windows Password" It is grayed out!
When I put in my Windows Password, I get the following message. "Authentication failed. Please try again."
If I change to another id: Administrator, John etc. I get the following message. "The user has not been enrolled with the Client Security Solution. Only enrolled users may log on or recover their password/passphrase."
When I boot the machine, the best I can do is to get into DOS.   I have no passwords set in Bios. I have tried to remove the password with the following command  (C:\Program Files\Lenovo\Rescue and Recovery\pe_masterpw_app.exe -remove) .   I have scanned my machine and cannot find "app.exe".
How can I fix this problem?

Hi,
based on the informations, that you provided, this looks, like if the RnR partition was configured as secure for your CSS application.
So here are the steps, on how to get rid of the password request:
- start into OS
- open CSS
- go to Advanced-> Manager security policies
- in this new window you will see on the left side the option "Log on to Rescue and Recovery". Please select it and on the right site you can choose the correct option, that you want to user. Or just dissable it.
Your situation is, that you, or someone have protected the RnR partition with the CSS security policy. The command, that you noticed, that is not for this purpose, because there are multiple ways on how to set a password into RnR partition:
1) useind RnR => this is the option, where the command "pe_masterpw_app.exe -remove" would help
2) using BIOS => this was only by older systems
3) using CSS => this is the situaiton, that you see. The main hint is the domain field, which can be only comming from CSS
Let me know, if this helps.
Cheers

Service Partition - Rescue and Recovery installation fails (not enough free space)

Im am aware about former posts to this subject on this forum, but they didn't answer all my questions, so I reopened the subject.
I tried to install "Rescue and Recovery" on T60 with win XP Pro and got the following message:
'There is not enough free space in the boot sector to install the Rescue and Recovery boot manager'
I followed the solution in "Rescue and Recovery installation fails") from 08-09-2008 03:03 AM
and created a hidden partition with Parted Magic but the rescue and recovery still fails with the same message.
Somewhere in the forum I read that the original service partition has a special format and not ntfs.
Could somebody tell me is it true or not ?
How can I rebuild this service partition ?
Do I need special setting, flags there ?
Is it possible to rebuild this partition without recovery CDs at all ?
Actually I'm wondering to, about the error message. It is saying '"..There is not enough free space in the boot sector ..." .
Is it possible that the boot sector is the problem and not the service partition ?
How can I fix that ?
Thanks in advance if somebody helps.

I have a 4-year-old ThinkPad R51. Because I was getting intermittent boot-up error messages--"Rescue and Recovery has encountered a problem and needs to close"--with ver. 4.0, I tried to upgrade to ver. 4.2. Per instructions, I first removed ver. 4.0 using Windows Control Panel. Then each attempt to install 4.2 failed with the message: "Error 25025. There is not enough free space on the computer to install or upgrade the Rescue and Recovery environment." Just before that error message popped up in center-screen, I got a Windows message at lower right saying "You are running out of space on SERVICEV001 (Z:}" Of course, there was no way I could view partition Z (that I knew of).
Thanks to the helpful messages above, I downloaded Parted Magic (http://partedmagic.com), burned a boot CD per its instructions, and re-booted with that CD. Using GParted, I saw that my SERVICEV001 partition was merely 590 MB, and 587 MB was in use. So I reduced my C partition by 500 MB and added 500 MB to the Z partition, raising it to 1090 MB. Then I was able to re-boot into Windows and the installation of Rescue and Recovery 4.2 was error-free.
Out of curiosity, I again re-booted with the Parted Magic CD to see how much space on the Z partition was taken by the RnR ver. 4.2 installation. To my surprise, it showed that still only 587 MB was in use, and 503 MB remained unused.
I thank those in this forum whose messages gave me the needed guidance. And I thanked the author of Parted Magic with a $10 donation, as I hope other users of his open source program will do.

Error when installing Rescue and Recovery

Hello,
I own a 2 year old Thinkpad L430 running Win7 Pro 64bit.
I've been trying to install Rescue and Recovery because I want to reset my PC from the recovery partition, and as far as I understand the only way to do that is through RnR(?)
But whenever I go through the installer i get this error message:
click me
which, in english, basically says that there was and error with the return code 6.
After googling around for a while i found out that the fact that I once had a Linux Distrinution installed alongside Windows may be the cause of aforementioned error, because Linux replaces the default Lenovo boot loader with it's own GRUB one. When i removed the Linux distribution I typed the following into the command line: bootrec.exe /fixmbr to return to the Windows boot loader.
Do anyone know if the Linux thing is in fact the cause of the error?
Can I somehow restore the Lenovo boot loader or is there's some other way to install RnR and/or restore my PC?
Any help is truly appreciated!
thanks,
Simon

A typical factory ship of machine from Lenovo: (yours may not look like this).
Q (lenovo recovery)
contains Rescue and recovery standalone software. This standalone software also can call The factory recovery software, if the Factory software is still on the Q drive. Lenovo modifies the BIOS to support launch of standalone RNR.
Regardless of RNR installed or not, on the windows platform, standalone SHOULD launch. There is always a standalone RNR in the recovery partition.
==
workaround:
(1) order REcovery DVD from the support center. $50 us if not under warranty
(2) find a bud with a Lenovo machine. Create Rescue media to a DVD. Boot your machine with the DVD. If it finds the recovery partition intact, you can do a Factory reinstall. Rescue media is a standalone RNR, it will not rely on the boot structure on your C drive HDD>
(3) Your main issue is RNR install died with RC=6. This shows up. Check the msi logs in
C/users/YOURID/appdata/local/temp. I have researched some of these. It is confusion in the installer/ and the condition of the PDA/predesktop area (corrupted) . PDA is standalone rnr. Your PDA is probably just fine.
SO, which version of RNR did you try to install? Was it the USA english version or the NLS support version.
Your cant mix and match.
You cant switch from the English only version to NLS. denmark version, it will rc=6. I personally think this is a bug..
Region lang, local lang etc also confuse RNR installer.
The rc=6 occurs way after the installer had a bug in it. Yes it is trying to modify the MBR/BCD. I dont think your linux stuff mucked it up.

Simple solution:
Get a DVD of standalone RNR to perform the factory recovery.
-or- hit pff11 at boot time, and use RNR standalone for Factory recover<<< this shoud work. << my choice.

Rescue and Recovery to clone to Crucial Msata SSD drive Not Working Error

I have a T520 andI did a complete backup through Rescue and Recovery I did the back up to DVD. I then checked all the DVDs They all have data and are almost full. The T520 came with a Toshiba 500 gig HD, I have added a Crucial Msata 128 GiG, The T520 is running windows 7, and I have loaded the programs I use, and almost no data. The DVDs from the complete back up are marked as follows:
Final SP Backup
Startup Disk
1c
2c
3c
4c
Final Q
Final C
All DVDs are full I Take out the Toshiba 500Gig put in my Crucial Msata Drive Boot with the Startup Disk select complete restore select from CD/DVD The T520 Asks for all the disks Some are only used for a few mnutes then after I put in final C It says it is going to reboot select drive after reboot and then I get the error screen:
1. Insert Your windows installation Disc and restart your computer
2. Choose your language settings
3 Click Repair your computer
File: \windows\system32\winload.exe
Status: 0xc000000f
The Selected Entry could not be loaded because the application os missing or corrupt.
When you receive a laptop from Lenovo they do not give you Windows 7 discs. So there is no way to do a srt. All I want to do is get the Msata drive to boot and run the os and all my loaded programs. This way it is faster and more efficient. Is there a simpler way. Please help I have only got about 40 hours into this mess. Thanks for any help from the experts.

I'm a bit confused about the process you are using and what you are trying to do.
If I understand you,
you currently have a working 500gb hdd with the operating system, your programs and your data.
You want to move your operating system to the mSATA drive and have your computer boot from there.
you have made a set of recovery disks using the Lenovo program. This is intended to restore your system to its original state (no data or extra programs)
Here are a couple of options
You can create a "backup and recovery" set of DVD's using the Windows built in programs (click the 'Start' button, then type 'backup' into the search box at the bottom) that will back up all of your system (OS, programs, data, setting etc.)
Use a stand alone program like Acronis to create a clone of your current disk
Thereafter
Remove your current 500gb drive from your machine
Install the mSATA drive
Restore whatever image you want (the Lenovo recovery, the Windows restore or the Acronis [or whatever program you used] image)
Reinstall your 500gb hdd and rename that drive to a letter other than 'C'

Rescue and Recovery -- Error 25011. A file required to install could not be located.

I have 2613CTO T60 with WinXP Pro SP3 and IE8.
RnR v4.21 is installed on my system.
I have downloaded this RnR v4.23 installation package -
tvtrnr423_017en.exe 227,523,448 (English) Rescue and Recovery 4.23 for Windows XP
but when trying to install an error occured with the following message:
Product: Rescue and Recovery -- Error 25011.A file required to install the Rescue and Recovery environment could not be located. This setup cannot proceed. Make sure that the correct .tvt file is located in the same folder as this setup package and restart this setup.
I also wanted to download this file to try installation again, but it missed indeed!
Moderator edit: Matched subject to question.

Download the full install file including all supported languages (449MB) instead of files by language. It worked for me.

Blue Screen error message after using Rescue and Recovery.

Good morning - I unfortunately had to use the IBM Rescue and Recovery feature to restore my factory settings. However, now my computer is giving me a blue screen error during the startup process. Unfortunately it is not on the screen long enough for me to get too much information from it, but I have been able to get win22n51.sys as being some sort of error message. If I start the computer in safe mode it will load without the error. If I use the safe mode plus networking it gives the error. So I'm assuming it has something to do with the network drivers?
I would appreciate any ideas you all have for resolving/further diagnosing this problem.
Thank you!

Hello,
Perhaps this Lenovo knowledgebase article, "XP Crash: System may hang or restart with a previous version of the Intel PRO 2200BG Mini PCI adapte..." will be of help to you in resolving the problem?
