Hello, I'm trying to do a complete recovery of my Windows 8.1 laptop (The "Remove everything and reinstall Windows" option). A few seconds after I try to initiate the recovery, I am stopped by a message that says:
"Some Media Files are Missing
Your Windows installation or recovery media will provide these files"
After this message appears I am prompted to cancel the restoration. How can I bypass this message to continue with the recovery? My laptop is 4 years old and is ready for a recovery.
My laptop was purchased running Windows 7 64bit, from which I upgraded to Win 8 64bit Pro through a free download from my school. I have my Win8 installation key, but not the download files. I upgraded to 8.1 through the Windows Store free download.
Acer Aspire 5742
Intel Core i5 2.53 GHz (original gen)
4.0 GB RAM
Thanks for any help!
