03204285 - drivers injection during restore from backup

[andrea.urbani]

I've experienced some troubles during restore from backup (full computer); the difficulties were created by the driver injection, set as default, and "hidden" inside tools. Once disabled drivers injection, everything went fine. I ask that for full restore from backup (in my case were a laptop with disk failure), the option is not a default, and not "hidden", because in this scenario in my experience the drivers injection cause a not booting system.
Thank you, Andrea

Hello Andrea.

Was the recovery media used for restore created on the original machine you were restoring? Thanks!

No, in was created by another machine (working).
Thank you, Andrea

Thanks for the heads up. It's recommended to keep Recovery Media per machine (as a result you wont have any issues with drivers being incompatible). In case you want to create a generic version of Recovery Media it's also possible: just disable the 'Include hardware drivers from this computer' checkbox and you wont have the machines drivers collected (and injected).
