Yoga 2 13: Recovery Partitions empty?

On a whole new Yoga 2 13 (500 GB hdd), when I check the disk management, I see the following partitions: 1000 MB (has no volume label) "Healthy (recovery partition)" 260MO (has no volume label) "Healthy (EFI System Partition)" 1000 MB (has no volume label) "Healthy (OEM Partition)" Windows8_OS (C 424,26 GB 'in good condition (start-up) page... "Lenovo (D 25.00"Healthy (Primary Partition)"14,17 GB GB (has no name volume)"Healthy (recovery partition)"except C: and C: all other partitions are listed as being 100% free.). that is, they are empty. Shouldn't these partitions contain data recovery start?

Ignore the above message. Apparently, when the walls are hidden (have no drive letter), windows disk management reports as being 100% free regardless of the amount is really used. (Quite misleading!).

  • How to empty the recovery partition

    Good evening!

    I would like to know if there is a way to flush the recovery on my (Windows XP Home) Dv1672ea partition in order to use it as a reader of personal files.

    I don't want to delete the partition and merge drive D, with the C drive, I want to just empty and use it as it is.

    I already have the recovery CD (and I regularly have to clone my C drive on a USB hard drive).

    Please, perform the following steps:

    1. open the disk management by right-clicking on 'My Computer' and select 'manage '.

    2. click on 'Storage' and 'disk management '.

    3. find the recovery disk partition. There are usually two partitions: the "C:" partition and the 'partition HP_RECOVERY D:

    4. right click on 'HP_RECOVERY D:' and select 'Format '.

    5. choose the file system and Allocation unit size and click on 'OK '. The HP Recovery partition will format and be available for your specific use.

  • Satellie Pro L830 - 11G - access to the recovery partition

    Hello
    I have a Toshiba Satellie Pro L830 - 11G, running Windows 7

    I would like to restore it to the original settings.
    I tried various things, but so far no luck.

    When I look into the system, I see that the system recovery disk is always classified as "Healthy (active recovery partition)", but there ' hatching / diagonal lines "current running through it (if necessary) - when I right click on this drive, it offers me only the opton of"aid ". It gives so many 1.46 GB AND free space as 1.46 GB

    So, I don't know if that means he's here and I can access it somehow, or if it is just an empty disk but with no real possibility to recover original parameters.

    Hello

    This 1, 4 GB partition is created by Windows and has nothing to do with the created by Toshiba recovery partition where is backup recovery image. Toshiba recovery image has certainly more than 6 GB I think.

    On Win7 machines you can start the image recovery installation using F8 at startup. When you do this, you will have the menu boot advanced options and select the option to fix my computer. Detailed information on the recovery image installation you will find in the user manuals document s or on follow Toshiba document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R02.htm

    Please note: disk image installation HARD recovery works if your phone has only factory.
    If you have changed something that he probably does not work. Under change something, I mean own installation operating system or changes in structure of HARD disk partitions.

  • Satellite P750 (PSAY1A) - How update the recovery partition?

    Now that I found out that using the recovery on a new HARD drive would create the recovery Partition... comes the question... How do I update the recovery partition.

    My Toshiba Satellite P750 (PSAY1A-01Y022) the factory settings has 132 update of Windows that should be applied during the first pass. I had to run Windows update 4 times before she shows "up-to-date". Not to mention drivers Toshiba as well.

    I also want to include some applications (Microsoft Office and other software and utilities)...
    Overall, I spent 2 days just to bring it t the State I want in.
    But I can't just access the recovery Partition (of the less any of this!)

    If you look at disk management, the recovery Partition is not a Volume name and that the file system is empty. If I right click on the recovery partition... all I see is "Help" Option

    I tried to assign a drive by using Diskpart letter... but it doesn't show much.
    My guess is that it is GBT/EUFI.

    Does anyone have experience updating the recovery Partition?

    > Now that I found out that using the recovery on a new HARD drive would create the recovery Partition... comes the question... How do I update the recovery partition.

    What do you mean by update recovery partition?
    The recovery partition should NOT be touched!

    In which case you'd change the partition, the HARD drive recovery process could not be started!

    Probably, you have not understood the meaning of such a HARD drive recovery procedure.
    It's the option provided by Toshiba and the recovery of HARD drive allows you to establish the notebook to factory settings; on the same State as at the first day of the purchase.

  • Satellite L40 - 18Y: corrupt system files - how to use the recovery partition

    Greetings,

    One of my friends bought the Bulgarian electronic Toshiba Satellite L40 - 18Y (PSL48E) from a major retailer and insists on the fact that it came without any CD, but the first time he installed Vista.

    After that some of his other friends have uninstalled Vista and XP for unknown reasons (he says that some drivers and patches were necessary to make XP work properly, I think he might have something on LBA48 and SP1).

    In any case, installing XP died, and the disk share is the file system is damaged.
    After I removed it with gparted I have two disk actions now.
    1st row in the table to partition: ntfs share labeled WinRE (no hidden bootable)
    (He has a stash of file RavMon.exe and autorun.inf which implies that damage to the installation of XP are perhaps caused by a virus)
    Second row in the partition table: empty (installation of XP was)

    Third row in the table to partition: ntfs share with data

    The problem is that the first partition unbootable and act like partition recovery, even when I toggle the boot flag.

    It is all recovery partition and how I should go?
    I read in some messages if you press '0' when the computer starts the Bios it will start automatically, but it did not work.

    A manual which was available for download for this model on Toshiba Support site the key has been specified as F12. It didn't work either.

    I'll be very grateful for directions, solutions or ideas.

    Hello

    There is perhaps a little change to reinstall Vista with the HDD recovery procedure.
    Please check if it would work.
    -Turn on the laptop and press F8
    -Check if there is an option called fix my computer
    -If so, select it, and then choose the last option called Toshiba recovery.

    But to be honest I don t see the chances it would work because you have already removed the Vista from the HARD drive.

    You must have read the user manual before deleting the Vista.
    The manual (Chapter 3), said that if the recovery DVDs has not been handed over with Notepad then you create the DVD using the Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator (is was also preinstalled). The user manual also describes the above HARD drive recovery procedure.

    However, the recovery DVDs can also be ordered here:

  • Create recovery media / make factory resection without recovery Partition

    Hello

    I don't have the recovery partition on my system, but I would like to reset my Ideapad Yoga 13 to the status of the plant. Is it possible somehow? All of the guides I've seen guess my recovery partition was still intact. Thank you for your time.

    Concerning

    To reset your PC

    Drag from the right edge of the screen, tap Settings, and then tap Change PC settings.
    (If you use a mouse, point on the corner at the top right of the screen, move the pointer of the mouse down, click settings, and then click Change PC settings.)

    Press or click Update and recovery, and then tap or click on recovery.

    Under all delete and reinstall Windows, press or click Start.

    Follow the instructions on the screen.

    Note

    You will be asked if you want to remove data quickly and carefully. If you choose to quickly erase the data, some data may be recoverable using special software. If you choose to completely erase the data, it will take more time but makes it less likely data recovery.

  • Unable to access recovery partition on Pavilion 513 x

    Someone has deleted some (or all) of the system folder XP in order to free up space and XP will not load.  On the blue HP startup screen, the usual access partition installation and recovery options are not shown.  I have reset to the default settings in the BIOS but still no access option specified.  (F10 does not work).

    I have a HP WinXP Home CD.  I was hoping that I could use to get Windows restored to the point I could access the recovery partition and restore the system, create the recovery CD, or both.  When I boot on this CD, if I choose repair on install Windows, the system gives me a blue screen with a registry error and will not go forward.

    The value of any ideas on how I can restore the system or create a recovery CD?  Thanks in advance for any help.

    Thanks for your input Frank. I'm trying to fix this sytem for someone else and wish they had made the restoration set initially.  And I bought several sets of restore computer surgeons over the years, but since the restore partition was still present, I tried to save this expense for a machine of this age.

    In any case I managed to get access to the restore partition, so I wanted to post it here for future researchers.  My solution was perhaps a little beyond the level of comfort of a typical user, perhaps someone can be helped.

    After my first post, I realized that the recovery partition may be present but empty.  So I started on a CD Linux (Ubuntu), so I could see the files. Everything seemed to be there and I noticed that the aoutexec.bat and config.sys were present, then I rebooted on a CD of Partition Magic 8, changed the recovery partition as the active partition and restarted.  The system started directly in the recovery process.

    I get errors in copy, so I can have other problems, but my initial need - access the recovery partition - is met.

  • Burn recovery partition

    Really disappointed. I have a tm2-2050us that I really liked. Unfortunately, I tried to install Windows 8 on it. Although he had very few problems, and it worked. I decided that I didn't like the new operating system. I decided to return the netbook to factory-installed. Unfortunately, not only I did not create a copy of my original CD (I didn't know I could do it on a USB key!), but Windows 8 did something on the recovery partition. No matter what I tried, the D partition was empty.

    I have Windows 7 install disks, so I managed to set up a USB with this top and do a cleanup. But of course now I don't have any of the features that I really liked this netbook like the TouchSmart software and automatic rotation of the screen. Then I go to the support page and guess what? HP can't stand this netbook. Of course, some original drivers are here, but none of the original software. I go to the recovery disks section and fill in the information and any recovery disks are available. I don't want just an OS Windows 7, I want the full enjoyment that I got when I bought it. I understand not obsolete, but this netbook is only 2 years old!

    I've been a supporter for a long time of HP products. I have four HP computers in my house, purchased 1 HP laptop for my daughter, helped buy a HP laptop for a co-worker, have a HP eprint station at home and boughtt an HP printer for my daughter. I always have backups on all my systems, but as the netbook did not have a dvd player, I never gave it a thought. Shame on me! But, shame on HP for the lack of support to something in 2 years!

    @RogueCowboy

    You do not need to include the recovery partition - and why would you? It is empty.

  • Help Wanted: Recovering from loss of HP Recovery Partition files

    Let me start with an explanation on how I lost my partition (go to the next paragraph, if this information is not required) up to March 2010 is coming up soon and so is the date of expiry on the Windows 7 Build 7100 (RC). So I restored my system back to factory conditions. When I pressed F11 I say a lot of options but the last two had confused me. An option said to recover as long as the plant, the other of the said Reset. I chose Reset (must choose the other), and when Vista Premium of hope was finished reinstall, I found that my labeled "Recovery" partition was almost empty. It says "6.19 GB free of 6.25 GB" (http://i48.tinypic.com/1zmguw1.jpg) so about 60 MB is used even if there is no visible (or hidden) file during navigation.  End of the story.

    Now, here's what I have. I have the recovery disks HP Recovery Manager asked me to do the first day. And I have this almost empty partition, the recovery files used to be on. Did not fit or did something else with him.

    ONE QUESTION: is it all similarly to recover the files from HP on the recovery Partition recovery using the above discs?

    I realize that I don't have partition and disk, that alone is sufficient. However, CD and DVD scratches easily, there is no real not a guarantee I'll have my safety with me NET. This is why I am no longer comfortable with 2 forms of file recovery. And so I ask above is impossible to do on the assistance of my own without HP (which is not free)...

    TWO QUESTION
    : can you copy an ISO image recovery discs and then burn that ISO (s) on a DVDs to make new copies of the old recovery discs?

    I thank you in advance for any comments incase I don't answer, and sorry if this isn't the right sub-forum relating to this topic.

    Not sure what happened to your recovery partition, usually it is recreated during recovery.

     

    As for making copies of all of the recovery, it's a very good idea. They can be copied directly with many CD/DVD burning applications, or converted to ISO for burning.

  • Help! Went to format my D recovery drive and now the recovery partition is gone!

    Hi everyone, thanks for reading and I would really appreciate the help! I use a HP G32 laptop, Windows 7 operating system. n in the middle of trying to free up space on recovery drive D, I went to the format is gone and now the recovery and empty of my D drive partition! Tried to retrieve the file, but to no avail! No idea what I can do? Thank you very much!!!

    That's what does_removes put in shape all the files. You burn your set of recovery disks? If so, you can start their relocation back to factory specifications that will recreate the recovery partition. Please note that this format the entire hard drive, which means that you save the files, photos, etc. before the race. If you burn your recovery DVD set, that you can order from HP for about $20.

  • Published: Recovery Partition do not have day

    I posted this under Yosemite, instead of El Capitan - very sorry.

    I ran updates on iMac 10.11.6 10.11.5

    The update has not changed the recovery partition, it is still at 10.11.5

    Ran 10.11.6 combination update, still do not update to recovery partition.

    What should I do to get my recovery partition in harmony with my primary OS version?

    Thank you!

    What makes you think that your recovery partition is not up-to-date?

  • did not update recovery partition

    Update my OS to 10.11.6

    The update did not update the recovery partition, it is now incompatible (currently at 10.11.5). How can I update the recovery partition?

    Ran 10.11.6 combined together, he did not update recovery partition.

  • Rebuild the recovery partition

    Hi all

    Since my macbook pro in construction since a backup time machine, I have no recovery partition. Not sure if the recovery of time machine is the cause, or that the guy who has this laptop (work) in front of me he erased accidentally.

    I tried to use the script of "Recovery Partition creator" on several occasions, but it did not work. It becomes very urgent to get the recovery as soon as I'm running into several issues that require me to have the partition:

    • Disk errors on my internal drive that requires a correction
    • Need to encrypt my hard drive
    • Try to resize my disk internal, so I can install El Captain next to my current OS X I just need to test before you lose access to the work of the features (earlier version cannot be installed as he does not like our proxy for example).

    Happy to go all the way to 'clean up' and then to retrieve locks of tiem machine, but no idea how to do things right :-(

    Any ideas?

    I feel that you are not the first user or 'owner' of the MBP.  If this is the case, I suggest the following:

    Back up all your data.

    Erase the HARD drive and start in the recovery of the Internet (OPTION-COMMAND-R) which will connect you to the Apple servers.  Following the directions, you will be able to erase the HARD drive and install the original OSX the MBP came with.  The recovery partition must be created.  (I guess that the MBP is a 2011 late model or newer).

    Install a more recent OSX (as appropriate).

    Reinstall your user data.

    Ciao.
