• Need help with the recovery partition/create recovery media

  HI - first thing I did when I got my thinkpad is a clean install of w7, but then I thought about it and restored the recovery partition, conviniently located at the end of the training, in order to create a backup dvd factory. Thing is, when I click the autorun (lenovoqdrive.exe) and select 'create recovery media', I get an error stating that "program files (x 86) \lenovo\factory recovery\recovburncd.exe" is missing... obviously since the operating system partition was crushed.

  I tried RnR and looked on the software + drivers page and nothing happens as "... \lenovo\factory recovery\" when it is installed. So, where can I download the program that creates the recovery discs?

  (I know possible to restore the operating system of the *.wim file but I want to leave that as a last resort).

  Okay here's what I did to who mightve had the same question: as mentioned earlier, I have restored the partition Q with (your favorite free partition recovery tool), then booted from a usb winpe (with imagex) generated from victory aik (free).

  first I deleted (from winpe boot usb) windoze partition with diskpart and recreated the 2 partitions S & C (and Q is on the left) by hand according to 'recovery.ini' found on q. then I restored S and C 'sdrivebackup.wim' and 'cdrivebackup.wim', respectively, using imagex.exe, which is actually two one liners.

  Finally, I tried the bcd to fixation by hand according to "bcdinfo.txt", also found on Q, but that did not really work... so I just jumped into a bootable win7 USB and he rewrote the bcd by itself (I assume). the last step has been fixing the mbr by using /fixmbr and /fixboot bootrec.exe.

  ATM I started just and afaict it behaves exactly like the first start-up of the plant. see you soon

• Need help on the recovery Partition

  Caveat!
  This area contains your hard drive contains the hard disk to perform a system restore

  When I double click on my hard disc, it appears such intruction on my screen, may I know what is the system recovery means and how to use it?

  * Btw, I intend to reformat my netbook, however is this system recovery can help me as soon as possible restore settings and things? **

  Any help and suggestions is welcomed and appreciated, thx ~

  Hello

  The D Partition on the hard disk contains your recovered files that allows you to perform a system recovery using the hard disk instead of using your recovery DVDs.

  To use this option, close the notebook, then press the rest away to f11 as soon as you press the power button to start the Recovery Manager and begin the process of reinstalling the operating system.

  It is a destructive process, so make sure you back up all your personal files etc. before using it.

  Kind regards

• Cannot turn on FileVault 2: "some disc formats do not support the recovery partition" version of the OS - 10.11.4

  Hello

  I went to turn on FileVault encryption for the first time, and when I click on restart (by FileVault guests) I got a error message that says "FileVault can not be enabled for the drive. Some disc formats do not support the required encryption recovery partition. To use encryption, reinstall this version of Mac OS x on a reformatted drive. »

  I found an article from apple support for this problem with El Capitan who recommended first aid running in disk utility.  I tried this but then received the same error message.

  a little history:

  -Mac OS 10.11.4 installed running on the brand/model ADATA SP 550 SSD

  -This SSD is a 250 GB drive partitioned into two, with one of these partitions being my OS

  -J' ran this BONE of a Bay external thunderbolt

  -ssd is formatted as HFS journaling +.

  I am really confused about this error message and couldn't find much online about it.  I use a fairly recent OS install.  I installed the operating system clean and made all my preferences and install so that I can encrypt and then back up this pristine OS environment in time machine so that I could always go back to it on the line in case where things are bunk too upward.  I'd have to install yet another OS to clean and do all my long software installs and system preferences settings... SIP.  I don't know if that makes a difference, but this version of the OS that I have been cloned by superduper to this SSD partition.

  What is the brand of SSD that I?  Might that matter?  I appreciate all the comments.  I'm really scratching my head...

  Thank you very much

  To enable FileVault, you need a recovery partition, which you don't have. You can create one by reinstalling OS X.

  If you do not already have a current backup, please backup all data, and then reinstall the OS. * you don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need the backup unless something is wrong. If the system has been upgraded an earlier version of Mac OS X, you may need to the Apple ID and password to use.

  There are ways to back up a computer that is not fully functional. Ask if you need advice.

  If you installed the runtime Java distributed by Apple, and still need, you will need to reinstall it. It goes the same for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.

  Related support article refers to OS X 10.11 ("El Capitan"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later versions.

• Restore using the recovery disks on Inspiron 15 3521 supplied with Windows 8 Pro. Question on the recovery partition.

  I created by the user recovery disks.  I created them the day I got the computer and he made three of them.  My brother has deleted my recovery partition just now.  My question is, if I resumed my Inspiron 15 3521 using three recovery disks that I created, be it recreate the recovery partition in the process?   I just need an answer to this question, not responses indicating that, if I have the disks, I don't need the recovery partition, why would I want the recovery partition if I have the drive, etc.  I would like to just a simple answer to the question.  If I use the recovery discs, it will recreate the partition recovery with all the info, she was in it when I got to the computer?  Once the recovery is completed from disks, will be that recovery partition be there as the day I got the computer, so if I wanted to (I don't want to, but I'm just a question) I could still create the recovery of her discs?  Basically, the computer will be exactly as it was the day I got it home, recover partition and everything?  Or, it will restore the computer to the new plant, but not to re-create the recovery partition with everything she had in it the day I got it?

  Thanks in advance.

  Yes, it will be if you select the correct option.

  Recovery of factory - "deletes all data and resets the Partitions.

  Updating of the factory - "Only restores the System Partition and keep other Partition content".

  It might be good for you to ask a Windows OS DVD 8.0/8.1 just in case the recovery media works however.

• How get/create my window recovery partition

  My 900 Elitepad had a problem with the touch screen while loading. I gave Hp support diagnostic Centre. They went before formatting my Tablet while diagnosis to find out where is the problem. At the end it got to know that the Elitepad 900 charger is the main problem for the touch screen problem. They have ordered for the charger and I resolved. After receiving the Hp Elitepad 900. on getting home, I did a thorough tab unfortunately check, I discovered that my Windows 8pro restore partition was missing or has been deleted. And without the recovery of Windows partition, I won't be able to refresh, reset my TAB to factory default incase the present windows installed on it get damaged/affected by the Virus. This gave me more concern since then. How can I go on this gentleman? Am confused. I need the recovery partition window/how get/create the recovery of the rear window so that I'll be able to reset my elitepad 900 to default setting. I will seek early for your positive response. Thank you and God bless you

  I don't know what will be the cost for the media. Something like US $40.

• Size of the necessary recovery Partition

  Hello

  I have a Pavilion dv5130ca laptop with a 120 GB drive, which is bad. I bought a new identical drive and from HP recovery disks.

  I would like to know what size I should I allocate the recovery partition, when I restore the windows; I was thinking about 6 GB.

  My OS is Windows XP Media.

  Thank you... Michel.

  Why deal with the recovery partition when you own the CD?  HP said the recovery partition to save a few cents (cost of the recovery CD).  A better strategy is to install windows and to remove the recovery partition.  A program of imaging like BOOTIT NG to create an image file of your operating system on CD/DVD.  Restore this image to any hard drive file and you will be able to return the PC to this exact state without needing a recovery partition.

  You can burn the small program of Bootit NG 1.4 MB on a CD.  Boot from this CD and you can restore this image to any hard disk file.

• Setting recovery partition

  I have hp dv6-3037tx

  I recently installed a new motherboard in my computer. Since then, I was not able to boot from the recovery partition.

  For example, I press F11 at startup and nothing happens, it starts just directly to the Windows 7 Home Premium OS. I have physical recovery disks (that work), so I guess that it may not be important.

  3 questions:

  1. If I do a system restore using my recovery disks, the recovery partition will intervene somehow?

  2. anyone got any ideas how to fix my restore partition?

  3. I really still do I need the recovery partition if I have 5 HP recovery disks in a place safe?

  Thanks to you all

  If the announcement of the Esc then F11 sequence is no longer works your BIOS sees while a change to the original partition scheme took place. That's why th F11 is no longer called the Recovery Manager.

  Unless you need to perform a recovery just leave the such recovery partition what. If you need to use it, set the partition to an active state. When the partition is defined as being active then turn the laptop the Recovery Manager should start.

  Unfortunately, usb thumbdrive recovery support is much more reliable and faster than the recovery disks. DVD media is not as durable as a USB key.

• Recovery partition using too much space?

  I recently bought a laptop refurb that has a recovery partition of 13.67 GB as shown in the Windows disk management.  When I check the properties of the partition it shows 8.42 GB of used space and 5.24 GB of free space.  Is there anyway that I can add free space on this partition for the primary partition?  Why Dell would use this space when he needed only about 9 GB?  (This machine has been renovated by Dell) I know that 5 GB is not much, but I don't have 105,57 total GB on the main partition, I would use everything I can.  Don't know if it's important, but this computer came with a DVD of reinstalling Windows from Dell, actually I still need the recovery partition?  Thanks for any advice.

  Hi slow72,

  Unfortunately, the partitions can be copied. However, you can use any image software available on the market that will contribute to the safeguarding of all partitions on the computer.

• Pavilion dv6t-2000 - cannot recover from the recovery partition

  Hey there. I'm trying to restore my laptop with Win 7 settings, but I can't seem to restore from my recovery partition. I tried the F8, F11 key and on the ways to office with no luck. In some of them, recovery option is grayed out, but using the recovery on the Desktop Manager, I have recovery option, but he says to insert disk 1 before continuing. I have no disc and I already have a previous restoration set the last time I got my laptop (about 2 years ago).

  When I click on my computer I see the c drive and d drive - what is labeled a recovery partition. I did a check of the recovery partition and there are no errors. It seems to work fine, except that my laptop is not to be used to recover. I know it's a major road, so I've never tested with it.

  Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated

  It is more likely that some of the files were corrupted on the recovery partition. At this point, since you have no recovery disc, I would phone HP to order recovery media.

• Windows Vista is installed on my recovery partition need help for this relocation.

  I have an acer extensa 5620, the labtob supplied with Windows Vista already installed. I ended up having to have my computer repaired because it became somehow infected by viruses a friend who I thought was well knowledged in computers, cleaned the virus or so I thought, and replaces Windows Vista with Windows XP I was not asking or giving permission for that to happen. Now, I came to know that Windows XP is not genuine a software which makes sense because I kept getting virus despite the fact that I have several systems antivirus on my computer and to make things worse, I'm sure I have a browser hijack. I tried to find a way, he made the switch to return to Vista because I liked it, but another friend told me I should stored it on my recovery partition. I don't know that much about computers if anyone can help me to find it and tell me step by step to correctly and safely to reinstall Windows Vista because I'm also fairly certain that bad software is whats allowing these viruses. Help, please!

  http://support.Acer.com/

  Contact Acer for the EXACT way to do.

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11, Acer Alt + F10 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the computer repair option

  See you soon.

• Help Wanted: Recovering from loss of HP Recovery Partition files

  Let me start with an explanation on how I lost my partition (go to the next paragraph, if this information is not required) up to March 2010 is coming up soon and so is the date of expiry on the Windows 7 Build 7100 (RC). So I restored my system back to factory conditions. When I pressed F11 I say a lot of options but the last two had confused me. An option said to recover as long as the plant, the other of the said Reset. I chose Reset (must choose the other), and when Vista Premium of hope was finished reinstall, I found that my labeled "Recovery" partition was almost empty. It says "6.19 GB free of 6.25 GB" (http://i48.tinypic.com/1zmguw1.jpg) so about 60 MB is used even if there is no visible (or hidden) file during navigation.  End of the story.

  Now, here's what I have. I have the recovery disks HP Recovery Manager asked me to do the first day. And I have this almost empty partition, the recovery files used to be on. Did not fit or did something else with him.

  ONE QUESTION: is it all similarly to recover the files from HP on the recovery Partition recovery using the above discs?

  I realize that I don't have partition and disk, that alone is sufficient. However, CD and DVD scratches easily, there is no real not a guarantee I'll have my safety with me NET. This is why I am no longer comfortable with 2 forms of file recovery. And so I ask above is impossible to do on the assistance of my own without HP (which is not free)...
  
  TWO QUESTION: can you copy an ISO image recovery discs and then burn that ISO (s) on a DVDs to make new copies of the old recovery discs?

  I thank you in advance for any comments incase I don't answer, and sorry if this isn't the right sub-forum relating to this topic.

  Not sure what happened to your recovery partition, usually it is recreated during recovery.

   

  As for making copies of all of the recovery, it's a very good idea. They can be copied directly with many CD/DVD burning applications, or converted to ISO for burning.

• ThinkPad E530: Need help using the Windows 7 recovery partition

  
  

  Nice day.

  Everything I've read, so far, is that it is not possible to do something with the remnants of the recovery partition now that Windows 10 'touched' the system.

  A way to return to your original OEM image would be to contact the applicant recovery DVD and Support (info below). There may be a cost of handling.

  Kind regards.

• Envy 14 K110nr: Cannot recover system recovery media, associated with PININST_BBV

  I have a HP Evny 14 K110nr. In short, the system upgraded to Windows 10, started acting weird about a month after:
  Lose access to resources (Task Manager, desktop, Control Panel, etc.)
  Defective devices (wifi, bluetooth, etc.), suspended connections, System Restore gave a lot of mistakes.

  Tried to fix the system, nothing worked (even the DISM restorhealth was not working and suspended 40%)

  Long story short, I tried to recover the hd partition and could not complete successfully, same thing happened with my recovery media.

  At the end of the recovery attempt, I get a BSOD and system resets. It was a loop like that for awhile.

  Ran Diagnostics, no errors, but I suspect it was the HARD drive as the mentioned system errors on it before the collapse.

  I replaced the HARD drive and started the process again, this time I have not received any BSOD, but after completitng, I get a message saying that the recovery was incomplete. Just now my system is a Clipboard and consider Ubuntu if I can't up the widows, but it makes no sense. I read through several threads that referred to this issue and I don't know if I've seen any absolute solution to this issue (none have worked for me so far). Here are a few:

  At the end of my mind, that has persisted for more than a week. My computer is literally a week or two longer under warranty, HP thank you.

  I understand that you upgraded to Windows 10 and then the system started acting weird about a month later with the loss of resources. and malfunctioni devices. You tried to do a restore but received many errors.  Then, you tried to do a system repair, but no luck. You tried to do a recovery from recovery and recovery but Media Manager once again without success.  At the end of the restore process, you have a blue screen and the system resets and goes in a loop.  You have run a complete diagnosis and all spent and that you have received error on the HARD disk before you replace it.

  You proceeded to redo recovery and you do not have the BSOD, but after, you have received the message that the recovery was incomplete.

  Here is a link to HP-HP System Recovery troubleshooting (Windows 8) computers that can help.

  You can also try booting in safe mode.  HP computers - Windows Safe Mode (Windows, 10, 8).

  If the problem persists I try to clean the optical drive, and then try using the recovery again.  You can try to clean it with compressed air or a disc to clean the disc. Also, check your disk recovery for stains or damage.

  You can also try to boot any disk from Windows and reformatting the drive to start over with the recovery.

  If it breaks down again it is likely that the discs and you will need a recovery kit.
