## What it is
LetRecovery is a free, source-available Windows system reinstallation tool written in Rust. It supports deploying WIM/ESD/SWM/GHO/ISO images from the desktop or WinPE, plus system backup, image downloads, and a toolbox for BitLocker, password reset, partitioning, and driver management.

## Use cases
- reinstall windows from a wim esd or iso image
- back up my system partition as wim or ghost image
- reset a forgotten windows account password offline
- unlock and reinstall over a bitlocker-encrypted system drive
- repair uefi or legacy boot after a failed install
- expand the c drive without losing data
- inject drivers into an offline windows image
- create an unattended windows install with unattend.xml

## When to choose
- you need a free noncommercial tool to reinstall or back up Windows without bootable media gymnastics
- you want WinPE-based offline operations like password reset, boot repair, or C-drive expansion
- you need broad image format support including GHO and legacy XP/2003 installs

## When to avoid
- you need OSI-approved open-source licensing or commercial use - it is PolyForm Noncommercial
- you are on Linux or macOS - it is Windows-only
- you need enterprise-grade imaging at scale rather than a single-machine tool
