Yes, this is the first time I have seen this message. And I don't recall ever restoring my system with a backup.
Turns out, the Dell backup probably wasn't a great idea. I violated my own rule, LWEA (Leave Well Enough Alone).
Last night I didn't turn off my computer. This morning, there was just a black screen with a curser and I couldn't get anything to respond. I ended up switching the power strip off, because nothing else was working, and when I turned it back on I got the screen that gave me an option to restart windows normally or launch repair. I tried restarting normally and ended up with the same black screen. Turned off power, back on, and tried "launch repair". It went back into the Dell backup & recovery and I chose the "Instant Restore" option. After about 30 minutes, it finally made some repairs and I got windows back up. I haven't fully checked it out yet but hopefully I will get everything back the way it was.
Sigh . . .
