What is a Windows Recovery Drive?
A recovery drive stores a copy of your Windows environment on another source, such as a DVD or USB drive.

Then, if Windows encountered a problem, you can restore it from that drive.

Recovery drive, lets you boot your Windows operating system from it, so that you can easily access a number of Windows troubleshooting and recovery tools to revive a failing system.
