This article provides instructions for creating the Recovery Flash Drive on the EloPOS Pack
All Windows 10 models come with the built-in Elo Restore Utility on the Windows Desktop. The utility is able to create a recovery flash drive based on the operating system you purchased. Please create your recovery flash drive immediately. In the event the HDD/SSD recovery partition is accidentally deleted or becomes inaccessible, you will need to use the recovery flash drive to recover your system.
The following procedures demonstrate how to use the utility to create a recovery flash drive.
1. Right-click the EloRestoreUtility icon on the Desktop and select โRun as administratorโ.
2. Click โStartโ button to begin the process.
3. Once completed, you shall see a pop-up window to ask to insert a blank flash drive to any of available USB ports on your EloPOS Pack.
4. After the flash drive is inserted, you shall see a window as shown below. Click โFormat Driveโ to continue the process. PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL DATA WILL BE LOST DURING THIS PROCESS.
5. Click โCreate Restore Mediaโ to proceed. This step will take 10-20 minutes depending on the configurations and flash drive performance.
6. Once the message shows "Creation Restore Media success...", please remove the flash drive and click "Exit" to exit the program.
7. In case the system crashed and you have to use the recovery flash drive, reboot the EloPOS Pack and press F11 several times to enter DeviceBoot Menu. Then, choose โboot from flash driveโ.
8. When the following User Interface (UI) is presented, click โInstall Recovery Solutionโ button.
9. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation process and then exit the program.
