Hello. I have a Lenovo Y700 gaming laptop (AMD-FX) My Windows 10 needed repair so I thought I would use Lenovo Onekey Recovery, but when I tried to boot to the software from the BIOS, it gives me a BSOD. I think it was corrupted recovery files. I ended up fixing the issue without reinstalling, though. BUT I was just wondering if corrupt recovery files could also corrupt my main OS files. (I know it's kind of a weird question). My disk is healthy and my computer works fine. I just want to make sure, though. Should I not worry about it? If anyone has any answers please help.
Thanks! :)

For OneKey recovery to work, it needs recovery partition on HDD or SSD.
If you removed that partition to free up space for user files, then Onekey recovery will not be able to do any recovering. Recovery partition needs to be recreated (you can do that from windows onekey recovery application).
Corrupted recovery data could indicate a failing hard drive which, if true, could indeed eventually affect the Windows installation and your own data.

I advice you to back up your data first, then test the drive with diagnostic software on a bootable CD. You can use SeaTools for DOS: http://www.seagate.com/gb/en/support/downloads/seatools/seatools-dos-master/

I ran a check disk. All is fine. Now that I think about it, I did remove something that had to do with recovery.
