Operating System Recovery By Avigilon Recovery Partition

If you need to recover the Windows operating system, the NVR4 Workstation includes an onboard Avigilon recovery partition that is separate from the operating system partition. The advantage of using the Avigilon recovery partition is that you do not need an internet connection.

Note: Depending on when your NVR4 Workstation was shipped, it is recommended that you connect to the network when possible to install updates for Windows and ACC Client software after system recovery is completed. For more information about ACC software installations, see avigilon.com/recovery.

  1. Start operating system recovery in one of the following ways:
    • On your Windows desktop, select and then hold down the Shift key and select Restart.
    • On your locked Windows screen, select and then hold down the Shift key and select Restart.
    • During direct boot of the operating system, repeatedly press the down-arrow key and select the partition.

  3. Select the OS Recovery partition.
  4. On the Avigilon Recovery window, select Recover.
