Lenovo Thinkpad T420 and problem creating Recovery Media?
Hello, dear Khabrovites.
I'm trying to make a USB flash drive via Create Recovery Media (recovburncd.exe) to restore the factory state of the Thinkpad T420 in the future. At the stage of choosing what exactly I want to install on this flash drive ( i.eho.st/ppghvb4z.png) if I check "Data Media" (regardless of whether "Boot Media" is selected or not), I get the error "The files required by this program cannot be found".
There are 4 Recovery DVDs on hand, created on the same laptop, as recommended when buying. If you use them to restore the laptop to the factory state, then the error does not disappear.
A cursory and not very googling on "Create Recovery Media The files required by this program cannot be found" gives a number of topics, but no solution has been found in any of them.
Thanks for the possible hints.

After recovering from a flash drive, on disk Q, in the right place, instead of cdrivebackup.wim (partition image), there were 4 cdrivebackupX.swm files (X is a number). On the recovery flash drive, there is also an image cut into 2GB - apparently they are reinsured in case of FAT32. I think we need to glue them into one and then everything will be fine. About the format on the wiki
Why, after restoration, it does not stick together itself - this is a question, of course.
