disk space low in my recovery disk

I'm having a problem with the recovery disk.  Of course, I get the notice that there is not enough disk space in recovery D: drive.  I reinstall Windows Vista Home Basic Edition.  I hit the hard drive to install it in.  That was of course a D drive.  How can I get rid of the excess in recovery drive (D :)?

Call the manufacturer of your computer.
Ask to speak to a technician.
Say your exact problem tech, and ask the person to show you how to get rid of unwanted items.

It was the manufacturer of your computer that has installed the recovery partition, these technicians know how to fix this.

  • Disk space low recovery partition - how to stop the useless error messge?

    I get the disk space error message off to a recovery partition. (Drive D)

    Yes - the partition is full, but I'm never going to delete files from it. NEVER!

    How to make the error message not pop for this partition? It's boring. And it keeps popping up again and again.

    OK - I realized for me how to disable the error message - but this disables it for all readers is not a satisfactory long-term solution.

    1. click on the icon of the little triangle that represents the hidden icons
    2. click on customize
    3. find the icon of the disk space low Windows explore and change it to "Hide icon and notifications".

    It sounds like this works - it should - but I noticed that EVERY TIME is to watch the Customization screen, it automatically returns to the default value and you have to change it again.

    But - this is a TEMPORARY AND UNSATISFACTORY solution because...
    a. it turns notification for all readers - not only the recovery one.
    b. it does not disable waste clock cycles used for control of the car - this is what is needed - an option to DISABLE them searching for a specific disk/partition.

  • Error (disk space low volume C) can anyone HELP?

    Hello world! Earlier when I had a problem with virus/malware, I chose to reinstall the operating system from the original installation disc. I use the version of windows 7 Home premium 64-bit with 4 GB of internal memory with a SATA 320 hard drive, with I think, 3 volumes partitioned space. When I was prompted to install the disk volume. I chose a different location from the location of the original of the operating systems (for fear of more write the original location of Windows OS.) Now I get a (disk space low on volume C erorr).      I now have two copies of the WINDOWS operating system on my startup directory, but I need one! So far, I tried disk cleanup and created a new partion Volume "A".            RESULTS > nothing changed, still in train (error-Low disk space Volume 'C').  Can someone help, please?

    Thank you for your valuable time into consideration my request:

    Hello!

    The tools that I have recommended to you are very small size (up to 1 MB set).

    You can safely remove the C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch content to free up a few megabytes.

    The prefetch folder contains details of caching of frequently used programs and startup applications.

    With this .pf files, Windows can improve the performance of applications.

    The .pf files are re-created when the applications were revived.

  • HP Pavilion dv6-3150us Notebk: space low disk after upgrade to version 1607 Windows10

    In the month of August I have improved my laptop Windows 7 Home Premium Windows 10.  Everything worked fine for a month now until Windows 10 1607 version has been highly recommended by people of Windows 10.

    After having updated with all updates faithfully, but as soon as I tried (four times) to install Windows 10 1607 version, then the step of time again to return to the previous version of Windows.  Then I hit a brick wall.  I always get the error message: "low disk space".  And Windows is continuously remind upgrade me to 1607. As in the famous movie, it's a catch-22 situation.

    I read part of the help Forum and led to a link suggested by a member of the staff of HP as the only resolution available.  The link for this low disk space error problem is http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03736755.

    I translated the link Windows 7 instructions in organization style Windows of problem resolutions 10 and is in the section "Files and folders" and then followed the steps in Windows 7.  But I always hit a brick wall.  In the view of files hidden on my recovery disk (drive D I checked I didn't backup any personal files to occupy space unnecessarily.)  I also emptied the previous system restore and just did a new restoration of the system.  But still the same problem.  It seems I need to extend my recovery disk for Windows 10 version 1607.  But by following the steps in the evolution of my partitions, the option to extend the recovery disc has been shaded and so available.

    Is it possible to enlarge my recovery disk? This laptop is great and has a lot of life left.  I don't want to have to buy a new one just to work on this problem of low disk space error.

    Desperately need help because it is the only computer for our family.

    Sorry do not provide the follow-up to resolution as soon as possible.  Here's how my problem was resolved:

    I asked my son to help IT specialist.  He re-partitioned my computer using a free software tool (AOMEI Partition Wizard Standard Edition).    I choose to add 50 GB of my unit (recovery drive) which then totaled 68 GB for this drive. because I wanted to ensure this problem wouldn't come back and I had space to work with.

    I have worked with this resolution now for about a month and have a zero problem.  What I noticed, was that after a few weeks 10 Windows should have automatically cleared out my previous updates because Windows Explorer now shows that this drive has a file size a total space of 68 and 51 GB that is not used which brings my use of the reader to 17 GB.

    I am guessing that before Windows 10 empty automatically previous updates that he needed somewhere between 20-25 Go make the final version of 1607 upgrade and retain earlier versions (for me to return to the previous editions).   Then the end of the period of time to return 10 Windows must have automatically deleted my previous editions and just kept upgrading version of 1607.  In hindsight I would have added 50 GB on my drive - on another 10-12 GB would have been more than enough for this transition period to work.

    Finally I am EXTREMELY well pleased I did the update of Windows 10 and then added the update of the birthday Version (1607).   I like the added security features and a large number of features and benefits.

    Hope this helps others.

    Hello

    You should never change the size of your recovery Partition, or add files

    Your recovery Partition was photographed on your hard drive during the production of your computer by the manufacturer for all of these reasons.

    1. If you want to reinstall Windows from in the case of a failure of the system, based on individuals or the keys at startup.

    F10 or Alt + F10 or F11 are a couple of different manufacturers use sequences.

    You will need to ask your manufacturer for proper sequence.

    2. to make the recovery disks on if your drive hard breaks down, so that you can then reinstall the operating system on a new hard drive.

    Also ask them how to make records.

    Your D: Recovery Drive is should not be used for backups, defragmented, etc..

    There are backups on an external hard drive.

    To resolve the problems that have arisen with the recovery D: Partition, you will need to contact the manufacturer of your computer to remove all that has been added to it.

    See you soon.

    my disk c is full, even after ive deleted all the files and programs-im @51 concert, how to minimize that and or transfer part on drive d?

    Ken

    The next step is to reconcile the total for 31 736 Mo C (say 31 GB) to the 51 GB what you said earlier. The formula to reconcile these figures is:
    Partition C + folder System Volume Information + Free space + file compression gain = ability to drive or partition

    The figure of the free space are in the lower left corner of the Treesize window. What is the current figure.

    To determine the size of the selection of folder System Volume Information start, Control Panel, system, System Protection, click Configure under Protection settings. What is the figure of the current use?

This information will also be deleted. For more information about system restore, search Windows Help and Support 'system restore.

    Are you sure that these files were not associated with the HP restore procedure? Unless you are certain that these files haven't it belonged to 100%, you should probably check with HP technical support. I hope that you created the recovery disk set when you got the computer. If you neglected to do so, make one now. If the value creating recovery disc fails because you deleted something shouldn't you have, contact HP and buy a disc of recovery for later use. It will be very cheap, around $20. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • Space low disk - FACTORY IMAGE (D)

    How can I solve this problem?

    Hello

    This warning is probably occurred because some software that you have installed is recording of data in the partition of evil, (I saw this problem with Norton Backup for example).

    Order free of charge, on the link below, is a useful utility, because it displays the files that the operating system normally hides and has a search function.

    http://www.SnapFiles.com/PHP/download.php?id=107872&a=7122339&tag=601108&loc=10

    It is a zipped file.  If you do not have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip , which can be used to open it so that you can run the Setup program.

    Run this utility, select the D: partition on the toolbar, search for files that are not obviously related to the recovery Image, then remove them.  It may well be obvious what software has been save data on this partition, then make the necessary changes to the software responsible in order to avoid the error re-occurred.

    Best wishes and a happy new year.
