Emergency Recovery Utility
The
Microsoft Windows 95 Emergency Recovery Utility is designed to
provide a backup of your system configuration in case a problem
should occur.
Windows 2000 Emergency Repair Disk
The
Emergency Repair Disk (ERD) can help you to repair or recover a
system that can't load Windows 2000. The ERD helps you repair
problems with system files and the partition boot sector. This
situation occurs when your hard disk fails or when some of your
system files are corrupted or accidentally deleted. System files are
the files Windows 2000 uses to load, configure, and run the
operating system. If some system files are missing or corrupted, you
can use the ERD to repair those files.
Widows 2000 Recovery Console
Users
can use the Recovery Console to repair Windows. This command-line
utility can be used to copy system files, disable and enable
services or drivers, repairing the Master Boot Record, etc.
Only administrators have access to the
Recovery.
