Overview: Chromebook Recovery Utility is a Google-provided Chrome extension used to create recovery media for reinstalling ChromeOS on a Chromebook or related ChromeOS device. A technician runs the utility on a working computer, selects the affected model, and writes the appropriate recovery image to a USB drive or SD card.
This is a repair utility, not a device-management platform: it does not enroll devices, deploy applications, enforce district policy, or maintain fleet inventory. Recovery erases and reinstalls the operating system, so districts should use it as part of a documented break-fix process and protect or back up local information whenever possible.
Features: Recovery-media creation
Downloads the recovery image associated with a selected Chromebook or ChromeOS model.
Writes bootable recovery media to a compatible USB drive or SD card from a working computer.
ChromeOS reinstallation
Supports recovery when ChromeOS is missing, damaged, or cannot be repaired through less invasive steps.
Reinstalls the operating system and returns the device to a state that can be configured or re-enrolled.
Media reuse
Includes an option to erase previously created recovery media before reformatting it for other storage uses.
Allows technology teams to maintain recovery media for common district device models.
Operational caution
Recovery permanently erases information stored on the Chromebook's local drive.
Newer devices may support internet recovery, while older models can have different recovery or support limitations.
