System Recovery
By executing system recovery, you can return the system of the E5071C (the Windows 
operating system and the firmware) to the factory state (at the time of purchase
*1
).
Types of system recoveries
The following 2 types of system recoveries are available.
R Factory recovery
Returns the contents of the C and D drives to the factory state.
R User recovery
Returns the contents of the C and D drives to a user-specified state. To use this 
function, you must prepare for recovery in advance. For information on the 
preparation, see 
“Procedure to create the user backup image” on page 34 for 
information on the execution, see “Procedure to execute the user recovery function” on 
page 40.
Notes on executing the factory recovery function 
Executing the factory recovery function causes the following conditions: 
R In addition to the Windows operating system and the firmware, the following settings 
of the E5071C are returned to the factory state.
• Network setting
• GPIB setting
• Printer setting
R The driver for the supported printer installed after purchase is deleted. 
R You need to execute initial registration again.
Files you created using the save function (files in the D drive) are not affected, but we 
recommend backing them up before executing system recovery for precautionary 
purposes. For more information on backup, refer to “Backing Up the Data” as described in 
E5071C Online Help.

was performed is recovered.
