1. A method comprising:
detecting, by a processor, a corruption of a non-volatile random-access memory of an information handling system;
performing a recovery process of the non-volatile random-access memory that includes:
determining whether a header of the non-volatile random-access memory is corrupted; and
if the header is corrupted, then initializing system properties and regenerating the header based on a previous snapshot; and
rebooting the information handling system.
