Windows 7’s Advanced Recovery comes with two options:

# Use system image to recover your computer

# Reinstall Windows using Windows installation disc

In the first method, Windows uses system image backup that you have created earlier using system image backup tool present in the Control Panel. You can follow our guide how to create a system image backup guide to create a system image backup. An option is also available to repair your Windows 7 installation using USB repair drive.

And the second method allows you reinstall Windows using either the original Windows installation disc or recovery image disc provided by your computer manufacturer. In the second method, your existing Windows 7 installation will be moved to a folder named Windows.old folder. You can go through our how to reinstall Windows 7 step-by-step guide for detailed instructions to easily reinstall your Windows 7 using the bootable media.

In both methods, you will be offered to backup your files such as documents, pictures and music to a DVD, USB flash device or external hard disk.
