  Hello

  It is not possible to reconstruct the OEM recovery partition using a different operating system.

  8.1 win has a few available recovery options:

  Create a custom Refresh Image.

  Create a USB Microsoft recovery discto use when your PC does not start or your HARD drive fails. Note, you will not be able to access Recovery Manager from HP that you have upgraded from Vista to Win 8.1.

  Create an image of Microsoft Systemon the external backup media.

  Resetyour PC.

• 2000-2b09WM HP: 10 Windows upgrade/Windows 8 recovery partition questions

  I tried the upgrade of Windows 10 twice with this laptop.
  
  1st attempt:
  
  He tried to upload D:Recovery partition, failed upgrade, fortunately I did a restore of Windows 8 USB, including the entire recovery drive, until I ran the upgrade, after several steps and issues, I restored to 8.
  
  2nd attempt:
  
  Again, he tried to download and install in the D: partition and failed, second recovery has been a bit more difficult than the first.
  
  My question is, deleting the recovery partition completely before running the upgrade would solve this and if so, would the recovery Windows 8 USB still suffice to recover in case of failure even after the recovery partition by removing completely?
  
  If the update is successful, I would be able to do a restore of Windows 10 USB then recreate a recovery partition, and then transfer the USB recovery to that partition?
  
  I am doing this for someone else who is not technically competent, if it was me I would do this differently (that's if I would never actually own this little thing).
  
  My goal here is to get upgrades, then do as close to 100% some I can that they can not only recover but they don't have to worry about keeping track of a recovery DVD or USB media if all else fails and can recover everything keeping the valid product key without them ever having to buy , find, use or type a product key.

  I delete the recovery partition and try the upgrade. On the issue of work after the removal of the partition which may depend on what type of USB recovery that you created. There's no Windows 8 version - which I've never used and do not know if it works without the partition. There are > HP recovery media- who works with / with out even on a new hard drive and the partition.

  Windows 10 also has an option to create a recovery usb disk but I don't think that it will transfer to a recovery partition - at least not a bootable. Windows 10 has the ability to reset this PC that uses files stored on the hard drive.

  You must also consider if the hard drive has failed it would take the recovery/reset partition with it until you have an installer of stand-alone-usb or dvd is always a good choice to install on a replacement hard drive.

  Of course, many use use imagery to take a complete snapshot of the Windows installation to easily restore either original or new hard drive. The imagery is also covered by the link above.

• G71-340US: replacement of the Windows 7 recovery partition

  As the operating system of the Noteook has been improved for Windows 10, is it possible to replace the data on the recovery with windows 10 Data Partition?

  If so is there a procedure to accomplish?

  Hello @joe935,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

  I stumbled upon your post on the recovery partition and wanted to help!

  I wouldn't recommend replacing your current recovery with Windows 10 files partition.  This current partition is used, just in case you want to revert to your previous operating system.  This option is only good for the first 28 days after the installation of Windows 10.  However, you can create recovery media for your operating system to Windows 10.  Please see the document below for more assistance, if necessary: HP PC - creating and using a recovery of Microsoft USB drive (Windows 10)

  Please let me know if this information has been helpful by clicking the thumbs up below.
  
  Have a great day!

• 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.

• How to make a windows vista recovery partition

  Hi I have a windows vista desktop computer and I need to do a recovery partition. There is currently no a. How can I make one? My computer has slowed down at the stop and I need recovered

  Hello

  You can't do a recovery Partition.

  A recovery partition is copied onto your hard drive from the computer manufacturer at their factory.

  If you do not have to purchase recovery disc are to make sure that you do not have alreasdy have a recovery hard disk Partition?

  @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

  There are several methods to reinstall Vista.

  There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

  You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

  How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

  "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

  Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

  If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  "How to activate Vista normally and by Activation of the phone '

• Windows 7 recovery partition and Hp

  Hello! I have a Hp pavilion dv7 with a recovery partition. IM currently on family vista premium, but if I buy windows 7, the installation will remove the vista recovery partition? If so, what can I do to keep it?

  (And if I buy 7, it is possible to descend the slope to vista?)

  Please answer!

  1. When you install W7 that does not alter the recovery partition, unless you choose to do so.

  2 burn your recovery DVD set before moving to Win 7. then it's a matter of booting from them to reinstall Vista, if you want.

• Pavilion g series: cannot access the recovery partition & disk do not work

  Try to reset the computer to factory since it does not start in Windows.

  When I try to enter in recovery "esc then F11" it will just try to load windows. Recovery partition is still there just can't access.

  So I try to use disc 5 figure set I did 3 years ago & it starts on the 1st cd, but I get a message saying that the disk is not for this computer.

  I'm like what?  This computer rendered & I have the best recollection no changes to anything that should have caused the recovery to think that there is another computer.

  Suggestions on what I might have to do in order to recover my computer to the factory?

  How can I access the partition recovery from normal mode does not work?

  Why the hell does not work my cd?

  I bought the computer again.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks for the suggestion, but I can't return to Windows, even in safe mode.

  If this is the case, then you need the recovery media you can perform a factory image recovery.

  You can remove the hard drive and connect it to another PC through an external drive enclosure or a usb cable to sata. Which will allow you to copy your important data from the drive to another device of storage for extra security.

• I can restore my laptop hp to factory same so I deleted the recovery partition?

  I deleted my mt computer recovery partition. but I want to turn back now. Help, please. I have the recovery disks.

  Hello

  Yes, it works perfectly.  Show "Factory Reset", using your recovery disks reformatted the entire disk before you reinstall Windows 7, the software and the drivers originally shipped with the laptop and recreates the Windows 7 recovery Partition.

  The size of the recovery Partition is configured at installation of the HP factory and it leaves only about 3 GB, which is insufficient for the upgrade of Windows 10 start the upgrade begins by creating files in the recovery Partition.

  Hello

  I just bought a new (840 EVO 250 GB) SSD for my L855-149 and I would like to reinstall windows 8 on this new SSD. In addition, I would like to migrate all the recovery partitions that are present on the HARD disk plant.

  What is the best way to do it?
  Is there a tool to Toshiba for that? I don't have the installation for Windows 8 diskettes.

  Please notify.

  Hello

  On Toshiba laptops, you can always find a preinstalled tool called creator Toshiba average recovery.
  This tool creates the recovery (disk or flash USB stick) media
  With the help of this recovery media, you will be able to put the laptop to factory condition, including all partitions that were available the first day of the purchase.

• Need to re - install Windows, but I have no recovery partition or the Windows DVD

  Dear reader,

  Recently, Windows got broken on my Toshiba Satellite L650-170.
  I tried to use my backup, but backup refused my backups.

  After some research, the disc seems to be in good health, but all the partitions on the drive seem to be damaged in some way.

  So, I'm without a Windows disk or the recovery Partition.

  How can I get Windows on my laptop using the windows key attached to it?
  (A friend told me that the use of another work of won´t of windows disk 7)

  Kind regards

  Peter

  Hi Peter

  If you don t have access to the original recovery partition, the question is: what do you have installed on your laptop?

  If you want to have the factory settings once again, you must install OS using the original Toshiba recovery disc. You can order it on http://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

  If you want to have clean OS install, you can use the original disc of Microsoft with the valid license code. Product key at the bottom of your laptop cannot be used for activation.

  If you have any other questions you are welcome.
