Dell SupportAssist OS Recovery User’s Guide

Introduction to SupportAssist OS Recovery

SupportAssist OS Recovery is factory-installed on supported Dell system models and does not require you to purchase any additional service plans. It provides a recovery environment that consists of tools to diagnose and troubleshoot issues that may occur before your computer boots to the operating system. When your computer is unable to boot to the operating system even after repeated attempts, it automatically starts SupportAssist OS Recovery. The recovery environment enables you to diagnose hardware issues, repair your computer, back up your files, or reset your computer to its factory state.
