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.

    I just upgraded to the new version of firefox. for some inexplicable reason, you have added icons to the left of my choice of personal menu in the menu bar. These icons are purely decorative, they take too much space, and now I can't view all clickable elements in the menu bar. extremely irritating. If you want to add undesirable, at least give us the possibility to the poster does not. is it possible that I can disable the display of these unnecessary icons?

  • How to remove the spaces from the figure at the bottom of page - too much space

    Hello

    I have a problem with too much space between the notes, I think that the # (space figure) is the cause of this, if I could take them off and just use the space after the paragraph style Panel, it would be great. There are currently 0 space after or before the game in the style of paragraph of the notes.

    I tried to do a find/replace search to try to eliminate this space but then this error message saying it can't find no space appears in the doc.

    Please help, what missing am me?

  • AVG says using too much memory because multiple firefox is open, but I only see one.

    AVG regularly analyzes in the background. Lately he has demonstrated a popup window that says multiple applications of Firefox are running and using too much memory, so I should close some. But I can only see 1. Tried CTRL ALT DEL to see if I could find the answer, but only showed 1 firefox, and that he used more than 28 000. So I think that AVG is correct, but does not know how to see what who or where they are. They DO NOT display in the lower menu on the main screen, so I guess they are in the background. Do not have the virus, and Firefox, regularly updates itself. What should I do to fix?

    Hi cmich80220.
    It is true, that you should only be able to run only one instance of Firefox at the same time. I searched but could not find someone else with a similar problem. If the problem comes back to Firefox running slowly, you can consult this article for troubleshooting:

    Hope that helps.

    Say hello to new parthcool.

    It is a normal behavior of a browser like Chrome or Firefox.  You run several tabs in Chrome?  Chrome treats each tab as a separate instance of the browser and for this purpose a separate process.  It is a good feature because it means that a hanging web page will not (usually) bring down the browser everything.  However, this means that Chrome uses a lot of RAM.

    Using intensive plugins memory within these tabs, like Adobe Flash, will greatly increase the amount of memory used.

    Here is a screencap of my own memory used within Chrome.  I did open Chrome before that and I currently have seven tabs.  This represents about 400 MB with pages containing the text for most.

    Unfortunately, because this is a consequence of the features of the browser itself, there are only a few options to solve the problem.  You can try to minimize the amount of memory that Chrome uses by following the instructions in this article.

    Your second option is to upgrade your laptop to include more memory.  You also extend the usefulness of your laptop.  If you want to go this route, I need your product number to locate the appropriate parts and information.  Follow this document to locate the product number.

    Finally, and this is probably the most effective solution, is to use the Ready Boost of the window function.  Ready Boost allows you to use Flash memory, such as a USB key, as secondary memory for your computer.  Here's a great thread in which explains how to use Ready Boost.

    I hope you find this useful parthcool; have a great day!

  • Explorer.exe and svchost.exe using too much memory

    I have disabled the automatic updates after the last round of updates, and now, all of a sudden, explorer.exe and svchost.exe use too much memory... enough to interfere with other programs, I try to use.

    Help?

    Windows XP Professional - Svc Pack 3 processor: Intel (r) Pentium (r) D CPU 2.80GHz CPU speed: 2.73 GHz memory: 512 MB

    Why you turn off automatic updates?

    There are between the two options. I just set it to notify. When it is practical, I go to the Microsoft Update slte and use the custom (not Express) option. This gives the user full control of the update of trial.

    You will have a better idea of the cause of the problem using Process Explorer.

    Download Process Explorer.
    For more information about Process Explorer, see here:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/SystemInformation/ProcessExplorer.mspx

    With svchost.exe provide us a list of services using the process. There are number of processes that are using svchost.exe, so we need to know that we provide more targeted assistance. Right click on the process, click on properties and look at the Services tab.

    Solution Explorer. exe has a number of subprocesses. Select the sub-process, click Properties and check the Services tab.

    Have you recently changed all types of starting any service. This often leads to the problem. Users often disable a reflection of service to speed up the system performance. In practice what is done is of one or several programs to malfunction.

    Hope this helps, Gerry Cornell
