HELP! I can't Factory Reset my Toshiba Satellite Laptop and I've tried everything!

[MareKorcok]

Hey guys so I need to factory reset my Toshiba Satellite L750 laptop, however pressing the "0" button when booting up doesn't work. I've also tried looking for a system image backup but I couldnt find any. Then I was told that my type of laptop has the backup saved as "HDD Recovery", which I need to burn on a CD/USB which I tried but it either didn't work or I haven't done it properly. If you could advise me I'd be happy.

P.S. Im broke so I would like to skip the wiping and installing windows again option.

Taken from the manual:

1. Turn off your computer.
2. Turn on the computer and when the TOSHIBA screen appears
repeatedly press the F8 key.
3. The Advanced Boot Options menu will be displayed. Use the arrow
keys to select Repair Your Computer and press ENTER.
4. Select your preferred keyboard layout and press Next.
5. To access the recovery process please log on as an enabled user with
sufficent rights.
6. Click TOSHIBA HDD Recovery on the System Recovery Options
screen.
7. Follow the on-screen instructions on the TOSHIBA HDD Recovery
dialog. The computer will be restored to its factory state
