I have a optiplex 780 disktop
Hello. I am having a few problems with my Disktop. When i first started it up, I did a factory reset once by going into Dell Backup & Recovery (version 1.6.0.3, reloaded) located in the Troubleshoot options. it was a Windows 8.1, once the reset was complete, i decided to upgrade to Windows 10 i didn't update any drivers and applications before i upgraded to W8.
Once upgraded, i went to the dell website downloaded a couple of the latest drivers and BIOS. I installed them and updated the Dell Backup & Recovery (1.9.2.8) for Windows 8.1; I did this because in the Windows 10 tab didn't have a DB&R install, so i just went to the W8.1 tab and took that. I did not uninstall the old one that was left over from Windows 8.1.
Once that was done i went into the program and it told me to update it, which i did and then it told me to create a recovery media, i did this with a USB stick and all was fine. I went into the troubleshoot options to reset the PC, and the option for DB&R was not there. Because that option wasn't there i knew something was wrong and decided to downgrade to Windows 8.1 just to fix this issue.
So instead i booted up into the recovery USB i created with the latest DB&R and factory reset there. Then there was a error and then the laptop had shutdown. I booted it up again and continued to factory reset from USB again. This time there was no problems. Windows reinstalled all fine, with all original loaded stuff, but the DB&R option in the advanced options was still not there.
I also downloaded an older DB&R and downgraded the latest one i installed in WIN10 and encountered a error in the "Updating PE Environment" loading bar with the error "factorysetup error 2". I also cannot refresh or reset the PC through windows. I get an error saying "cannot find recovery environment". Can someone help me with this issue, i would really like to fix this. Thanks in advance. contact me personally
