Recovery will wipe the partitions I did recently?

I did the other, D: E: and F: partition on hard drive.

If I use the recovery CD to restore the system, he will wipe away the files on other partitions beside those on C:?

Thank you very much.

  • Increases the size of the "HDD Recovery" folder on the partition "D".

    I am the owner of laptop Toshiba Satellite, recently, I noticed that my D: drive (unused) is saturated and after careful analysis I realized that the "HDDRecovery" file size is > 200 GB.

    I don't want to remove the file or remove image files inside that I need the functionality of recovery, but I have not a clue how to handle the recovery process to decrease the volume.

    Do you have an idea how this issue?

    Hello

    It seems strange to me that the size of the HDD recovery folder would increase up to 200 GB continuously. Probably for laptop computer stores files backup automatically in this folder, but I m not very well why

    However, I recommend you to create a recovery media (recovery disk) using the Toshiba
    Recovery media creator (this software pre-installed on the Toshiba laptop).

    The use of disk recovery (or USB key recovery) would fix the laptop back to the factory and even if settings you should remove the folder in HARD drive recovery or the entire partition, this partition, and these files would be created again.

    Hope that this information could be useful for you.

    # Problem, it is that your recovery image is useless now. When you want to use the external device for installation of recovery image is must be created as device start and it can be done if you use the preinstalled recovery media creator.

    Recovery image is saved on the HARD drive and fixed with the so-called markers. Recovery media creator can find these markers and start using the recovery saved on the HARD disk image. After changing structure of HARD disk partitions these markers disappeared and this is the reason why you see this error message.

  • Using the "System recovery" Recovery Manager, it will erase the partitions?

    Hello, I was counting on the creation of a second partition for windows 7.

    What I want is two partitions one with windows 7 and one with vista. This is the easiest part.

    Now, I was planning on moving over my larger files, which is a lot of music and a lot of digital photos on the windows partition 7. Then, I wanted to clean install vista using the system recovery feature built into the computer. Now, I see it says restore my computer to default settings, but it's a little vague.

    So my question is, even with 2 separate partitions would be a system recovery remove them both and combine them into 1, just like when I got to my computer? Or would it restore my vista partition just like it was when I got it? I've really messed with the recovery of the system too, so I don't know if there is an option to select a partition, or something, I don't want to go overboard and remove my pictures and music.

    And there are a lot of things, like 50 + GB combined, it would take a lot of time to save it online, but if that's what needs to be done, so be it.

    Thank you!

    Also the laptop I use is a Hp pavilion Dv2500 with just vista on it right now.

    Hello

    The answer is no. The Recovery Manager has his job to do once tell you her to begin.

    The HP Recovery Manager will do its thing and restore your laptop provided that delivery. It is a destructive process in terms of all the space on your hard drive, except for the recovery partition. You will find yourself with a Vista partition (C and a recovery partition (D when it is done.))

    This means that when the recovery is complete and you have all the drivers loaded, you can use the Vista Disk Manager to create your partition in Win 7.

    I hope that this makes it more clear.

    Kind regards

    Hello

    To be honest, I've never tested it, but I think that you should be able to use HARD drive recovery, even if the partition D has been changed, but that's just my opinion.
    So before you change anything on the HARD drive, I recommend you create the recovery disk!
    The recovery disc helps you define the laptop (and also HARD drive) back to the factory settings if anything went wrong with the HARD disk or similar

    With recovery disk, you are on the safe side you know
    I think you can run a series of experiments after the recovery disk was created.

    Please share your experience with us, I m very interesting.

  • Installation of the recovery on laptop with partitions disk

    Hello

    Hello

    As in the previous announcement described the recovery CD provide two types:

    Standard mode removes the whole HARD drive, also the partitions.
    In expert mode, you can choose which partitions the OS is to be installed.
    Then only the files and data on this partition will be deleted.

    Hello Chris,

    Installation from recovery or a recovery partition disks ' "won't replace (wipe) the partitions that you created. The idea is to "valuing your system back to factory conditions", which means exactly that.

    I suggest that you save all the information about the partitions that you created on a removable USB drive. As soon as you reinstalled windows, you can then recreate the partitions and copy the information from your removable USB hard drive hard disk internal.

    Impact of surgery Maintenance of Partition on a Table partitioned local index
    Whenever a partition maintenance operation takes place, Oracle locks the partitions of the table concerned for any DML operation. Data in the affected partitions, except a FALL or a TRUNCATION operation, are always fully available for any operation selection. Given that clues them are logically coupled with the (data) table partitions, only the local index partitions affected table partitions must be kept as part of a partition maintenance operation, which allows the optimal treatment for the index maintenance.

    For example, when you move an old score a level of high-end storage at a level of low-cost storage, data and index are always available for SELECT operations. the maintenance of the necessary index is either update the existing index partition to reflect the new physical location of the data or, more commonly, relocation and reconstruction of the index to a level of storage partition low cost as well. If you delete an older partition once you have collected it, then its local index partitions deleted, allowing a fraction of second partition maintenance operation that affects only the data dictionary.

    Impact of surgery Maintenance of Partition on Global Indexes

    Whenever a global index is defined on a table partitioned or not partitioned, there is no correlation between a separate partition of table and index. Therefore, any partition maintenance operation affects all global indices or index partitions. As for the tables containing indexes, the affected partitions are locked to prevent the DML operations against the scores of the affected table. However, unlike the index for the local index maintenance, no matter what overall index remains fully available for DML operations and does not affect the launch of the OLTP system. On the conceptual and technical level, the index maintenance for the overall index for a partition maintenance operation is comparable to the index maintenance which would become necessary for a semantically identical DML operation.

    For example, it is semantically equivalent to the removal of documents from the old partition using the SQL DELETE statement to drop old partition. In both cases, all the deleted data set index entries must be removed to any global index as a maintenance operation of normal index that does not affect the availability of an index to SELECT and DML operations. In this scenario, a drop operation represents the optimal approach: data is deleted without the expense of a conventional DELETE operation and the indices are maintained in a non-intrusive way.

  • HP 15-AB521TX: reinstalling Windows recovery media will remove the created partitions?

    I have a HP 15-AB521TX and as usual with all laptops, it comes with C: drive.

    I used a third party partition manager to create more than 3 partitions by deleting the space on the C drive, so now I have C, D (recovery), E, F and G,

    But somehow now I want to reinstall windows (using the recovery backup media (flash drive)) and I wanted to know if it will remove all the extra partition I created and delivered to a single drive C? Since I have data on other players, I don't want to do.

    Thank you very much.

    bsguru

    Unfortunately, the answer is YES - as the first action of the recovery feature is to reformat the entire disk to match the partition arrangement which was put there at the factory.

    So, BEFORE you do this, you must migrate off the partitions and the data you want to keep or restore.

    Good luck
