Yes when your computer boots you hit F10 either when it gives you a second to do or you can hit F10 a couple of times while it's booting to get the screen up. When you start the steps of system recovery it will walk you through the steps. Recovery will offer you the option to back up your programs on disk usually "it is recommended that you back up all programs etc." If you just select the option to back up, recovery will proceed to walk you through the steps to do this. You could just do it manually yourself before going into recovery, but it's more complicated that way since there's no instructions. Just start recovery and it won't restore without asking you first about the back up. It's not the end of the world if you don't successfully back them up, though. I've dumped my system about a million times and usually I only lose a few things here and there that I can usually just go online and download again. The longer you wait the more chance you have of losing programs to the virus, so I'd do it asap.

yes, a local computer store will now someone or will be able to extract information off a hard drive, even if the hard drive has been severely beaten. unfortunately, it can be very expensive to do this.

None of the above. Sony will sell and trade your personal information at YOUR expense. If you doubt me, try it. See the video below.

Read the documentation. There will be a function key you can press during boot to get it to boot the machine.

It could be hidden for a reason, It could have backup software on it.
