dell xps 15 l502x factory restore

hello,

i've XPS 15 L502X and I want to do a factory restore. If the restore partition was deleted there is a something I can do to bring it back?

the windows 7 serial code which located at the back of the laptop is faded so I cant install it from scratch.

maybe there is a option for downloading dell operating system of windows 7?

There is no way to recover a deleted recovery partition - nor did Dell (Microsoft) permit Windows 7 to be downloaded.   If the system still runs, you can upgrade to Windows 10 -- or contact Dell to see if they can sell you a recovery flash drive for your system.  They may or may not have Windows 7 at this point.

I would be very careful doing that - most sites that provide these are potentially severe security risks.
