Why is my system reserved showing 6 percent fragmented?

Why is my system reserved showing 6 percent fragmented? And I cannot degrag it, when I try to defragment it it will start then stop without saying anything. It will hurt anythingmand how do I defragment? Thank you...

Sounds like your drive has been prepared with a Windows 7 installation disc or you've got a computer with Windows 7 installed and that you have decided to remove Windows 7 and install Windows XP.  In any case, don't bother with defragment the system reserved partition, just leave only the partition.

  • What is 'System Reserved'? Why it appears as a hard drive?

    Hi people,

    I have just re built my PC game, and thus, it has 5 HARD drives.

    He is now showing a 6th disc, called "System Reserved" (70.3 MB free of 99.9 MB)

    I checked the disk management, see it as a partition (?) on a 75 GB of HDD from my old PC, which has the Home Premium version of 7 64 bit OS installed.

    My new system has 7 Ultimate 64 bit OS installed, which is the real operating system I use.

    I read in an issue, which is usually reserved system a partition that contains the files needed to start.

    It is not suggested that this reserved system contains the boot for my old OS files? As it is only 29.6 GB, is it big enough to be who? When I 'open in a new window' it says empty, but I think it's really impossible to access files.

    I am very happy to leave it alone, but I'm curious as to why it is listed as another drive?

    Also, if it's start-up files, and I chose for formatting the rest of the drive is on, which would be he start?

    Thank you

    Phil :)

  • Why carnt I defragment reserve hd system

    why I can't defragment reserve hd system

    Hello

     
    1. What happens when you defragment the partition?
    2. What operating system is installed on the computer?
     
    100 MB system reserved partition is used primarily as BitLocker partition for BitLocker encryption. In addition, he also holds the Windows recovery environment (WinRE) and startup files with the Boot Manager to start the computer for troubleshooting when there is no Windows 7 installation DVD disc on the spot.
     
    Disk Manager does not remove or modify this partition because remove or make changes to this partition could force the system to no boot. It is possible to hide or delete this partition, but this can be a very complex procedure and is not recommended.

    With all due respect, you are incorrect. You simply did not notice before D drive. D drive is a logical drive. To the best of my knowledge there is no way to prevent it from the show. However, simply disable the system for D drive restore.

  • It is call 'system Reserved (h :)) '.

    Why after I installed windows 7 new local disk appeared "system Reserved (H 'only 64.6 MB.). Can I remove the local drive because I need the local disk, and what is the function of this new local disk.
    I thank the of to help

    Hello

    Do not keep this partition - it contains the files of startup and recovery for Windows 7 environment, but it is normally hidden and should not appear under 'computer '.

    The reason for which this partition became visible is because he received a "drive letter" (in this case, H) that you need to remove as follows.

    Hold down the Windows key and press R.  In the run box, type compmgmt.msc , and then press ENTER.  Click on management of the disks in the left pane, then when the scores were loaded, right click on the Partition system for and select 'change drive letters and paths...", then click on the" delete"button to remove the drive letter, and then click Ok.

    You should see is no longer this partition under computer.

  • Remove the old hard drive's "system Reserved" partition

    I installed a new Seagate 1 TB hard drive and a new operating system Windows 7 Home Premium 32 - bit on my HP Pavilion a6500f PC.  I kept the old Seagate 500 GB disk, put it in an envelope and formatted to use as a unit of storage for backup of my drive.  However, when I open 'Computer' after having turned on the envelope I have 2 drives listed instead of one.  It says a (J) is the system reserved partition and the other (K) is the drive.  I put a picture to show what I mean.

    As you can see in the middle there are two partitions for the main drive (C), and the bottom shows the drive J and K.  What I want to know is how to get rid of this drive J so that all I have is the K left.

    Help will be greatly appreciated!

    Personally, I would use free mini tool to format the drive externally

    Of course you have formatted the other not the entire disk partition

    Reason to use the mini tool is that it is more user-friendly :)

    But you can drive system 6 reserved a right click and select Delete volume

  • Can I delete the 100MB system reserved partition

    Is it possible to install windows 7 (clean install) without making an extra (hidden) "system reserved" partition of 100 MB?
    or how to remove this partition after installing?
    Why is it for?
    I have the sense that it slows down a bit my hard drive?

    Thank you

    Hi Johan G,.

    Thanks for posting to get ready for Windows 7.

    The 100 MB partition is a partition system and contains the boot files. Disk Manager does not allow you to delete this partition because they remove this partition could force the system to no boot.

    Thanks for posting your question to prepare for the community group Winodws 7.

  • Windows 10 we could not update the system reserved partition

    I have windows 7 Home Edition premium, no idea why it says windows 10 we could not update the partition system reserved when I try and update?

    • Make sure you have enough disk space.
    • Although the recommended minimum requirements are 16 GB (32-bit), 20 GB (64-bit), if you upgrade from a previous version of Windows or a previous version, you will need to have at least 40-50 GB of free space to accommodate the installation files.
    • First run Disk Clean up.
    • Archive files rarely used to an external hard drive.
    • Consider data synchronization to OneDrive or similar online service and do a custom installation.
    • Turn off (preferably uninstall) your Antivirus utility before you perform the upgrade.
    • Disable the general USB peripherals (for example - smart card reader).
    • Do a clean boot, and then try again.
    • If you upgrade to the. ISO file, disconnect from the Internet during the installation, if you are connected in LAN (Ethernet) or wireless, disable both and try the installation again.
    • If you update via Windows Update, when download reaches 100%, disconnect the Internet LAN (Ethernet) or wireless, and proceed with the installation.
    • If this does not work, try using the. ISO file to upgrade if possible.
    • If you are connected to a domain, go to a local account
    • If you have an external equipment, attached to the machine, unplug them (e.g., USB sticks, external hard drive, printers, peripheral non-essential).

  • How do extend you System Reserved Drive (drive E)

    I am trying to extend the reserved system disk and just 100 MB, I tried the disk management and did not work. I have Windows 7 on my computer, but I want to install Vista too so I put in place. and she needed more space on disk management. How do extend you more space to this topic?

    Why you would even SEEK to extend partition "system Reserved"? Don't mess with it! Windows 7 uses the system reserved partition so that it can store recovery options and other information of the C partition so that the malicious parties or unsophisticated users don't destroy the boot partition

    Quite WHY you would want to install Vista a dual boot, I can not understand, but certainly NOT system reserved Partition. You need to cut one of your other primary partitions, create a new partition in the space and install Vista.

    In fact you can even not able to do - in the usual way of creating a dual-boot Windows computer is to install the oldest operating system on the C drive followed by the most recent on a separate partition.

  • Should I be defragmentation PQ Service and system reserved?

    I use windows 7 SP1, it's my Disk Defrag - it shows 3 discs, the first is that I expect to defrag - my C drive, which is scheduled to run, and I have no problem with defragmenting drive C.

    I have no idea what these other 2 discs do or if Iam assume defrag them as well.

    PQ Service - last run 24/07/12 0% fragmented

    RESERVE SYSTEM - 7/3112 was last run 8% fragmented.

    I would appreciate any information on these 2 discs. TIA...

    ~ ~ granny

    Hello learning-to-62,

    The disk marked PQ service partition contains a copy of your operating system and is used to restore your system to conditions in the factory if you have any major problems. You can find a way to restore your system to conditions at the factory by looking in the PC Guide, that came with your PC or even to visit your PC manufacturer website. This partition you have no need to defragment because no changes have been made for him.

    The System reserved is a small partition that contains your Windows operating system startup files. Personally, I defragment this file as well as my C: drive.

  • How to remove the system reserve of my computer?

    I installed Windows 7 Pro in Windows 7. I used a program of virtual drive to mount the iso of Windows 7. I then install Windows 7 pro. I started out in the 'new' Win 7 and let Windows do its thing updated and which do not. I have a Windows.old so I know that the operation went well. However, when I open the computer, he showed my C drive and an extra drive that I have 'E', but he also showed the system reserve partition drive. I know that this is part of the startup procedure so I know not, I can't delete it, but how do I remove it from my computer, where it shows all the readers of mjy? It wasn't until I reinstalled Windows (by that I mean the partition was there but does not in the window of the computer).

    Once you remove the drive letter, it will not in the computer.
