    Some commands that work in administrative command prompt may not work when entered into administrative powershell.
    See if you can run these with administrative command prompt:

    Code:
    bcdedit /enum
    bcdedit | find "osdevice"
    reagentc /info
    diskpart
    lis dis
    lis vol
    sel dis 0
    det dis
    lis par
    sel par 1
    det par
    sel par 2
    det par
    sel par 3
    det par
    sel par 4
    det par
    sel par 5
    det par

    When these have completed > right click on the top bar or title bar of the administrative command prompt box > left click on edit then select all > right click on the top bar again > left click on edit then copy > paste into the thread

    The partition 4 with 1.22 GB that was displayed in post #8 is no long present as per:
    post #15 Disk management
    post #21 Mini Tool
    post #23 Command line

    Partition #4 is now D: 20 GB.

    Recovery remains disabled.

    Yes, the 1.22gb partition was the 'phantom' drive read by System Restore, probably created by extending the Windows-created 538mb partition. I extended it into C to remove it and my initial problem is now solved, SR only sees C and D. Since I have an MCT usb, am I ok w/o Recovery partition 4, as Bree suggests ? I think this means that I just can't use the 'Reset' feature in Settings/Recovery ? Thanks again for your time.

    As I said earlier I'd watch and learn. Though I can't think of a reason to extend that Windows created partition.

    Thanks for the info.
