I just wanted to specify that the
F5 and
F8 keys allow access to the
Safe Mode. Then you can perform the
Original Factory Restore. This is
only on
branded PCs.
The
F12 key would allow access to the
Boot Menu, which would be useful when after the Boot, you
select the Acronis True Image Flash Drive while the External Hard Drive would only be to restore / save the PC Image via Acronis True Image
/ Macrium
(
bigger Images,
more time consuming to check
Image Integrity,
more time consuming to
restore an Image
) / etc.
