What Is Factory Settings?

When we talk about settings, we are referring to standard layouts that govern or guide all the operations by the system. Factory settings are the default standards or original operating standards that are incorporated with systems. They run your system without any custom changes introduced. Factory settings are generally optimal and provide a default minimum operating standard that can be improved using custom settings by the user. They are most often the recommended standards for your system best performance.These settings work optimally with all programs that are installed as default and are stored in the BIOS (Basic input and output system) memory.

This can be done in several ways. We’ll consider the two best and easy ways of doing it. The first is using the Microsoft system restore option, and the second is using the HP recovery manager. Microsoft system restore is actually limited in what it can do, but it is quite useful. Using this option allows you to create or select a restore point in history. That is choosing an earlier date to restore your system settings. To do this, click on the start button, select ‘all programs’, select ‘accessories’, select ‘system tool’, then click on the ‘system restore’. Follow the restore wizard carefully and in few minutes you are there. Using the HP recovery manager requires you to do a backup on your files. Recovery manager returns the system to the original default settings and deletes all installed programs and user files.

To do this, click on the start button, select ‘all programs’, select ‘recovery manager’. The recovery manager windows will display, select your desired action and follow the on screen instruction.

The major precaution you must take is to take a backup of all user files and programs. This is required because the recovery manager will delete all user files, after completeing the process. You must follow the on screen instruction carefully so as not to jeopardize the whole process. Follow step by step instructions to get the required goal. This must be done with the system connected to an source, because the process may take longer than expected. The backup should be done to a reliable storage drive or system. Preferably, an external hard drive or an optical drive disc will be a better option.
