With a lot of Dell models it's ctrl-F11. If that doesn't work for your laptop, check the user manual or have a look at support.dell.com.

I found that the recovery menu is unusually added to the bootup menu(FCool but still the Windows 7 couldn't back to its factory default after the recovery procedure has done.

What is the likely problem with it?

Thanks
