• recovery drive (d) too full?

  The storage capacity of my recovery disc (d) shows that it is almost full with 14.7 GB used space with a total capacity of 16.7 GB. That only leaves me with a little more than 1 GB remaining. Is it normal to be so full? If this is not the case, how do I delete data not required drom this player? Also, how this data get accumulated? I searched all recovery options I can think of and can't seem to find anything that could be causing my system to be backups of recovery that I have not programmed. I deleted the system restore so that the last point. Clean up system files, disk cleanup, etc. The D drive shows that it has been compressed to save space

  I have 64 bit Desktop HP Pavilion, running Windows 7 Premium. My C drive conversly has 37 GB of space used with 411 GB of free space remaining. I would be grateful someone some light on this for me. As far as I know, this condition can be quite normal.

  eyemchase,

  Welcome to the HP Forum.

  Don't worry about this.  Not add, remove or change anything in recovery.

  The recovery Partition is better and happy like this.

  Recovery is used to restore your computer in case of failure; the partition has within itself all the necessary tools to rebuild the main operating system as it was when the computer is new and clean.

  What is recovery (D hard?)

  Comment

  Unless you really need to, I recommend that you do not remove the recovery partition, that is, do not delete it.  Sometimes people do after their recovery disks (you have made backups of recovery, right?) -and then these same people regret having deleted the partition later.  Sometimes people delete the partition of the accident before making their recovery backups.  It's sad.

• Satellite Pro L40 Recovery - drive C almost full

  Hello

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  The ONLY way to return to its original state of the recovery partition is to do a full erase of the hard drive and reconfiguration of the PC itself Žtat factory use HP Recovery Media - and, as said, that will delete EVERYTHING on the drive!

  If you have backups of the image, as you requested, then you really don't need to partition and can safely remove to reclaim that space.

  If Windows won't let you delete this partition, then try using this: Best Free Partition Manager for Windows | MiniTool Partition free

  Good luck

• Almost full recovery drive D

  My D recovery drive is about 99% full.

  I continue to generate and save restore points?

  Yes, you can double-click the drive in this PC and then double-click "Recovery."  You should be able to right click on the files you want to delete.  At least, I can do this in my D: / partition.

• Received error code 0 x 80070070, little space on the D: Recovery drive is full.

  Original title: 10 upgrade of Windows 8 Windows

  I get error code 0 x 80070070. On Recovery D: low disk space

  Disk is full.

  What should I do?

  None of the answers I had had nothing to do with the question, so I'll answer it myself.

  It is a problem of HP. The solution lies on their site here:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03737312

  I did it and it worked perfectly. The warning of no do not remove the necessary recovery files was a moot point. The system wouldn't let me not in all cases.

  You are advised to:

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

  There are backups on an external hard drive.

  To fix any problems that have occurred with the D: Partition Recovery, you will need to contact your computer manufacturer (HP) to remove everything that was added on.

• Laptop HP Envy - RECOVERY (d :)) drive is almost full

  Hello:

• In Windows 7 64 bit can drive letter D be removed safely to a HP recovery partition which is full?

  My drive C partition has a lot of space, but the recovery drive D partition shows red/almost complete.  My computer is a HP dv7 laptop running Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium edition.

  Occasionally, I get annoying warnings in order to free space on recovery drive D.  I know that the D drive is important and not did something for her.

  A previous post of Microsoft MVP said remove the recovery Partition letter D would take care of the problem without affecting, or withdrawing, D recovery drive data.

  However, while following its not recommended, it is a warning about the programs potentially does not work properly. I cancelled the process without continuing.  Other posts in this thread mentioned will come with the removal of the letter ends not "power" with a red 'X'

  I have both a bootable HP recovery disk and a Windows recovery disk for this computer in the case of a hard disk failure, as well as frequent backups and Images of disks of the computer for the whole system.

  I'm sure woud like to get rid of these warnings of boring.  Thanks for any advice.

  Backup Windows, as with all utilitiies of backup, looking for the next after C drive letter because it is not a good idea to save anything on the main drive.

  What Windows backup or any other backup utility does NOT do is check if the disk with the following letter is a suitable place for file backups.

  To locate and remove the backup of Windows files, search for *.bkf and then delete them.

  Backups must be stored in the external media that can be isolated from the host system when the not required. Preferred to use an external USB disk. You can get one of them before deleting the files bkf in D... :-)

• H9 want - 1469ea Phoenix: CSO part of hard drive 0 indicates full - E Drive a 2.7 TB unused.

  I'm a H9-1469ea Phoenix office less than 2 years. The OSC Drive (referred to as disk 0) with 106 GB is full of programs etc and cause serious problems. The rest of the car O contains recovery (drive D), and I'm unable to increase the volume of the part of the OSC. The D drive on disk 1 has more than 2.7 TB of unused space (I keep all data on a spare drive - not the computer), but I am unable to repartition to use this space as the C for programs, etc. How can I increase the size of drive E (Datadrive) using a portion of unused space in drive E greater than 2.7 to.

  Hi again rgh1,

  It is good to hear from you!

  The reason why your particular computer was equipped with a smaller than the hard disk drive is for quick loading and processing of the operating system. As the disc is an SSD means that the start-up will be generally faster than a typical hard drive!

  To keep your system works effectively, without overloading the drive 0, you can use your E drive for storage of files, applications and games. For example, you can reinstall Steam on your computer hard disk of 2.7 TB. This can be done by navigating to a different destination folder on the E drive. For more information, you can also take a look at this document on install games in different places.

  I hope this helps, and if you need further assistance, I would be very happy to give him!

  Have a great rest of your day!

• HP PavilionTouchsmart 11 Noteb: storage capacity of recovery disk is almost full

  Thank you

  Hello:

  It is normal that the partition recovery disk is almost full, and you should never store other files on it.

  The partion made just large enough to hold recovery files.

  If you have stored files on the recovery partition, I recommend that move you elsewhere.

• Error message saying no disk space on recovery drive E

  I have a laptop Dell Inspiron which is only a few months old and I use Vista Home Premium. I constantly receive an error message indicating that the recovery E: disk space is full. I went to the computer to check the available disk space and the bar is completely RED for drive E: of recovery. I have a lot of available memory on drive C: I tried to Defrag disk and disk cleanup. Disk Cleanup says 0 bytes will be released by empty my trash. That's because my basket is empty! I deleted all temporary internet files. I did a virus scan. I tried to save recovery E: files to an external site, but could not do this. I tried to delete the files and received a warning message if I did not complete this task. I copied the files to a folder of Documents, but that solves nothing. I called Dell Support and they said something on the partition. I tried to create my backup disks, but this error seems to be the way because he won't let me do this or the other. I cleaned my images and deleted all of the videos. I did everything that I know to free up space. I don't want to disable the error message, as some have suggested. I tried previously posted questions and answers on the forum, but I am unable to find my EXACT problem. If it is there, then I don't understand computer Lingo. My laptop is only a few months old, so I haven't added a large number of files. Why is that happening and how can I solve the problem? Please help!

  Dell computers are shipped with a recovery partition you can use to restore the computer to the way it was when it was new (usually by pressing F12 when the computer starts).   The problem is not that the recovery partition is almost full.  The problem is that Windows Vista should not access that partition at all and shouldn't the user.

  To delete the partition of Windows Vista and avoid the error message, remove the drive letter:

  1. click on the Start button.
  2 type diskmgmt.msc in the Search box and press enter .
  3. click continue at the user account control prompt.
  4. when the disk management window, right-click the E: partition, click change drive letter and paths... and click Remove .
  5. click on Yes .

• Recovery drive D has disappeared.

  My recovery drive D on my PC was completely full. I did a complete system restore. Nothing happened on the drive D. certain way, the recovery drive D has been erased.  Is there a way I can get it back?

  Hello

  Loy I'm sorry, but you can't replace the contents of your D: Recovery Partition on the hard disk

  The recovery Partition D: was photographed on your hard drive by your computer manufacturer during the production of your computer for these reasons:

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

  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.

  .

  If you need to reinstall Vista yet, here are two methods to do this.

  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

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

  Is this a computer supplied by the manufacturer with Windows
  pre-installed?
   
  If so, D: is probably a recovery disk partition. This is where
  to allow you to reinstall Windows if it is necessary. It comes
  full (or almost full) and you should be sure never to write anything
  for her, or remove what either of him.
