When you purchase new Computer or a Laptop, after some weeks or months you may face some recovery problems and you don't have the Windows installation disc.
Most of the computers companies do not provide optical media for the recovery for your operating system. But you can create a recovery disc or drive for this problem and can use it anytime to recover your Windows. All you need for this purpose is a proper running computer, a USB drive/Disc. If your computer is facing problems like Windows file corrupted, registry busted, no boot up or need to start over and over then you can use your recovery drive or disc to recover your computer's operating system. Windows 7 does not allow USB recovery drives and you can use disc instead of USB. However, you can use both disc and USB drive for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1.
