+If your Elastic Metal server encounters issues but does not have a hardware failure, you can still recover your data using rescue mode, regardless of whether you are using Windows or Linux.
+
+
+
+- A Scaleway account logged into the [console](https://console.scaleway.com)
+- [Created](/elastic-metal/how-to/create-server/) and [installed](/elastic-metal/how-to/install-server/) Elastic Metal server
+
+## Booting into rescue mode
+
+1. Follow [these instructions](/elastic-metal/how-to/use-rescue-mode/) to start your server in rescue mode (emergency system) via the Scaleway console.
+2. Log into your server using one of the following methods:
+ - [PuTTY](http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/latest/x86/putty.exe) on [Windows](/elastic-metal/how-to/connect-to-server/#how-to-connect-to-an-elastic-metal-server-from-windows)
+ - `ssh` from a terminal on [Linux or macOS](/elastic-metal/how-to/connect-to-server/#how-to-connect-to-an-elastic-metal-server-from-osx-mac-and-linux).
+
+
+ The rescue mode credentials (username and password) are displayed in your Scaleway console.
+
+
+## Gaining root access
+
+By default, you are logged in as a regular user in rescue mode and may not have permission to execute all necessary commands.
+
+1. Switch to the `root` account by typing the following command and pressing Enter:
+ ```bash
+ sudo su
+ ```
+2. Enter the rescue user password displayed in the Scaleway console and press Enter.
+
+
+ For security reasons, the password will not be visible when typing.
+
+
+## Mounting partitions
+
+To access your data, you need to mount your server’s partitions in rescue mode. If this step succeeds, you can likely recover your files.
+
+As the `root` user, run the following command to mount all partitions:
+ ```bash
+ mountall.sh
+ ```
+ The partitions will be mounted in the `/mnt` directory.
+
+
+ You may encounter errors such as `swap cannot be mounted` or `many partitions do not exist`. These can be safely ignored.
+
+
+## Recovering your data
+
+You can recover your data by downloading it directly to your local computer via SFTP.
+
+
+ Exercise caution when editing your data in rescue mode. The `root` user has full permissions, including the ability to irreversibly delete files.
+
+
+### Backing up data to your personal computer (via SFTP)
+
+You can use an SFTP client like [FileZilla](https://filezilla-project.org/) to download data from your server.
+
+Open FileZilla and fill in the following details:
+ - **Host**: Your server’s IP address
+ - **Username**: Rescue mode username (e.g., `em-XXXX`)
+ - **Password**: Rescue mode password
+ - **Port**: 22
+
+
+ These details are available in your console once rescue mode is active.
+
+
+#### Example configuration
+
+
+
+Your data will be located in the `/mnt`, `/sda1`, or `/sda` directories. You can download it before reinstalling the server or transferring data to another server.
+
+
+ If you encounter difficulties, consider contacting a [certified outsourcer](https://www.scaleway.com/en/dedibox/outsourcing/) for professional data recovery.
