How to get proof of recovery now no PCRs?

My DD had just tested positive on a LTF. She intends to travel over the coming months - how can she get a proof of recovery certificate if PCRs are no longer available? Can you just register the postive LTF now??

You can register a positive LFT if you are in a category that gets free tests, otherwise not as far as I know. If you still have a free test it might work?
Otherwise you'll need proof of vaccination.

She is fully vaccinated but we are just worried that if she has to take a PCR to enter a country it might come up with a false positive.

LFTs aren't accepted for recovery certificates ( as anyone could fake it) and don't think that's changed. I suspect your only option is to pay for a PCR now or hope it's negative by the time she goes ( they say 90 days as it's possible but for most people they'll test positive for about 20 days on a PCR). Double check the requirements for the country she's going to, DH thought he'd have this problem but turns out a supervised LFT is ok for his destination.
