Question re: Rescue & Recovery 4.2 and CHKDSK/def​ragging problems

A few quick questions re: R&R 4.2 preventing the user from defragging the hard drive.
1)  Are there any work arounds for this that do not involve removing R&R?  I have a X61s with no CD rom so I have no backup CDs, so removing R&R is really not an option.
2)  Has Lenovo acknowledged that there is a problem with R&R and CHKDSK/defragging?
3)  When can we expect a fix for this?  It has been broken since mid-December if I remember correctly.
Thanks

If you search the forum with chkdsk startup, you will find a workaround.

  • Rescue & Recovery issues trying to transfer files

    I have an annoying issue.  My lappy woke up this morning with the CI.DLL error and I get the error screen saying that this was deleted and I'm unable boot.  Tried booting in safe and still did not work.  So I went into rescue & recovery to restore and I wanted to transfer some files I had on my hard drive that were not backed up.  I have an external hard drive and I've done this before; transferring files before I do a complete restore.  I tried it this morning, selected the files I want transferred and then it pulls up a screen that says 0% complete, files could not be transferred??? Any ideas?  Would this be caused by the error above?  Thanks. 

    wmarkw, welcome to the forum,
    It is unlikely that someone with a solution will browse by in 37 minutes, this is a peer to peer forum. I have moved your post here as your issue is more R&R than hardware related it will hopefully be seen by more members who use R&R.
    As a thought, are you able to remove the hard drive and copy the files you need by attaching it to another system?

  • Appleid, recovery email address and security questions were hacked.

    My son's recovery email address and security questions were hacked.  How can we get these changed so he can purchase more apps?  Currently he is being asked to answer security questions that do no pertain to him (like what were you doing on such and such date - he wasn't even born yet).  The email address in the recovery section is r********@answers.com.  We don't know who this is, but it appears they have hacked his account.  He has an itunes balance and I don't want him to lose it.

    You or your son will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to update the rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

  • How do I can my rescue email address? I was asked to answer my security questions, but I forgot the answers and realized my rescue address was outdated. I tried adding alternate email addresses, but my faulty rescue address remained the same.

    I tried to change my rescue address, since it is outdated, and was not receiving any of the emails from Apple to this faulty address regarding resetting my security questions.
    I cannot proceed in regaining full use of my account to make purchases if I do not reset my security questions, and I cannot reset them without receiving such an email, and I have no idea how to change my rescue email. The Apple ID support section of this site was unfortunately unhelpful and led me in circles.
    Please help me to change my rescue email address!
    If it helps, a few months ago I changed my primary account email, and my old primary address is my faulty rescue address now. It is no longer on my list of addresses but continues to show up as my rescue address.
    An additional portion of my question: Is it possible, if I terminate one Apple ID, to move purchases made on that ID, to a new ID? I'm not sure if it's a violation of the terms and conditions if DO NOT keep the purchases on two accounts simultaneously.

    Did you not call the Account Security Team? It's pretty new.
    Check the AppleCare number for your country here:

    Call them up, and let them know you would like to be transferred to the Account Security Team.

    I have itunes account and I'm trying to buy for itune store and asks me security questions which I can not remember and do not put a rescue optional email I should do?

    Hello Jbamrah,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5312
    You can edit or delete your rescue email address at My Apple ID. To edit your rescue email address:
    Navigate to My Apple ID using your web browser.
    Click "Manage your account"
    When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
    Click Password & Security
    You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
    Note: The option to send an email to reset your security questions and answers will not be available if a rescue email address is not provided. You will need to contact iTunes Store support in order to do so. 
    Best of luck,
    Mario

    You need to either reset the rescue email address's password(check the site's help for instructions) or ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • The power meter, and Client Security Solution, Rescue & Recovery problems?

    Hey guys, 
    I just love my Lenovo X61s...
    Everytime I boot it up(BTW, I run XP) I login and CSS asks me to verify my authentication, and always fails. I HAVE read posts by other people reporting the same problem, and I've read that clearing the TPM thing in the BIOS will solve it, but in my case it just doesn't!
    Also, a power meter just beside the System Notification Tray, doesn't always show up, and hence sometimes when I shut down, a 'PwrBnkGndWindow' end program window pops up! Can anyone please please help me in solving my problems!? 

    Based on your description I don't think Rescue & Recovery or Client Security Solution have any value for you.

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    The security questions and rescue email address is there for account security. If you don't have a rescue email address then contact iTunes Support using the link on the HT5312 page that you posted from.
    When they've been reset you can then either a rescue email address for potential future use, or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

    Probably not; if you want, you can try using this form, but will likely be told to phone instead.
