Ok...having an issue assigning the new location with the newly copied Reserve partition (now Disk 1 - 1st in order - in MT Wizard attached

Getting the following error in administrator CMD screen:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>reagentc /setreimage /path \\?\GLOBALROOT\device\harddisk0\partition1\Recovery\WindowsRE
REAGENTC.EXE: The Windows RE image cannot be stored in the specified volume. Use the RETAIN command in DISKPART to prepare the volume and try again.

My guess is wrong parameters in my CMD command ???

Open Command Prompt (admin). Run:

diskpart
list disk
select <disk number> - probably going to be zero - you want the disk number of the physical drive we are working on.
list part
select part <partition number> - the partition number of what should be the recovery partition - probably going to be 1
set id=DE94BBA4-06D1-4D40-A16A-BFD50179D6AC
exit
exit

Code:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>diskpart

DISKPART> exit

Leaving DiskPart...

Then try the reagentc command again.

File Explorer select the G: drive, right click and select Properties, change the name to what you desire.

Disk Management might be used to remove the drive letter: Choose the drive which you want to hide and right click on it. Choose 'Change Letter and Paths' and click on Remove button.

If no drive letter is displayed for the partition in Disk Management then perform a full shutdown of the computer by admin command prompt type shutdown -r -t 0

Well got things moved around but now I'm stuck...again. What do I need in the command to change the Recovery to position 1 - and how do I rename position from 'Data Partition' back to 'Recovery Partition' ?

Same answer as before...
