What to do in case of Notebook Maingear Сrash?
Recovering of of your Notebook Maingear may be required because of failures in the operating system or hardware errors. The reasons for failure can be the laptop contamination with unnecessary or malicious software, the presence of broken hard disk sectors, overheating of the motherboard or video card.
The methods of laptop operability recovery are very similar to a desktop computer, but there are also some unique features specific to laptops only.
Restoring laptop System
Run the System File Checker sfc /scannow

- In the Command prompt, type sfc /scannow command, and then press Enter.
- Start a Command prompt as an Administrator.
- After restoring the system files, you’ll need to restart Windows.

Note: Windows return from a restore point only applies to system and software operating system settings. The system rollback deletes all the programs that were installed after its creation and does not restore the files deleted previously.
To return Windows to a restore point, do the following:
Run the Recovery Environment
If as a result of damage to system files, the operating system loses operability and does not boot, then the recovery environment helps return the files.
You can start it: 1. By pressing F8 key during the computer boot; 2. Using the boot disk (or USB-stick).
Note. The first option is possible only if the boot partition was created during installation of the operating system. This section is created by the system for its recovery and, depending on the system its size can be 100 MB, 350 MB or 450 MB.
When starting the Recovery Environment, choose the item System Restore or Repair your computer. The name of the menu items can vary depending on the version of the operating system and a method for starting the Recovery Environment.

Note. When restoring the laptop factory settings: all user data from the laptop system partition will be deleted; the system partition of laptop will be formatted; all the software and apps pre-installed by the manufacturer will be installed.
To restore the laptop factory settings:
