How can I obtain a recovery DVD for a Toshiba notebook, sold in Europe? [closed]

Our Toshiba notebook, bought (I think) 2015 doesn't start anymore, or rather starts into a myriad of recovery options. Recovering the system without external media does not work (we tried all options except complete reinstall). According to some sources, one can - or could, once upon a time - download an image for a recovery DVD or buy one from Toshiba. However, when hunting around the Toshiba homepage, I only found links to external service partners. 69€ for a reinstall may not be the worst option, but maybe there'S a better one.



The notebook is a PSKUQE-01100WGR



Is there any way to get an image for a Toshiba recovery DVD?

  • As I wrote in my question, Toshiba no longer provides images. That doesn't mean no one else provides them. I can reword the question to "how to repair my notebook" but theres no option withoput recovery medium left ...

  • @DavidPostill in your opinion is there any chance to reopen this question? as said I can reword to follow the template linked above, but it will remain a question for the specific recovery disk.

  • You can download the ISO for Windows 8 or 10 directly from Microsoft (and preferably burn a USB, do not use DVDs). That is the recovery media. If needed, reinstall the drivers from Toshiba's websute. That's all.

    Windows offers (Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10) ISOs for free, purchasing a recovery disk, is not necessary. Any drivers that might have existed on the Toshiba disk, can be downloaded, from Windows Update and/or Toshiba website for the product. Don't waste your money on something that is free.
