Create a System Repair DVD

Create a System Repair Disc for Windows 11

Protect your system. Stay prepared.
A System Repair Disc lets you access recovery tools if Windows ever fails to boot. Here’s how to create one using a DVD burner.

What You’ll Need

• A blank writable DVD (DVD-R or DVD+R)
• A computer with a DVD burner
• Windows 11 installed

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Insert a blank DVD
Place it in your DVD burner tray.

2. Open Control Panel
Press Windows + S, type Control Panel, and press Enter.

3. Go to Backup and Restore
Navigate to:
System and Security → Backup and Restore (Windows 7)
(Note: It still says Windows 7 — this is correct.)

4. Create the Repair Disc
Click Create a system repair disc on the left.
Select your DVD drive and click Create disc.

5. Label and Store Safely
Label the disc (e.g., "Windows 11 Repair Disc – Nov 2025”)
Store it in a safe, accessible location.

Why It Matters

This disc gives you access to recovery tools like System Restore, Command Prompt, and Startup Repair — even if Windows won’t boot.
