Recovery partition has reset to Disk0
Hi forum people,
I noticed this morning that my recovery partition (it used to be D drive) could not be found.
I ran Disk Management and found that my external drive (it used to be G drive) had been re-assigned to D drive and my D drive was coming up as (Disk 0 partition 1) Healthy OEM partition and (Disk 0 Partition 2) Healthy EFI System Partition.
I ran the command prompt and tried mountvol (I tried a few letters, D, T, S, O) but it came up as access is denied.
I'm the only user and administrator on this computer, so I tried adding user1 to see if it would make a difference, but it doesn't seem to have.
I'm sorry I'm rather unfamiliar with programming and prompts so I'm feeling a bit lost.
If anyone has any suggestions or could guide me through how to mount my Recovery partition back on it would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: I realised I was missing a bit of information. I managed to reassign my external to G drive using Disk manager and it has remained as G drive for the few restarts I've performed.
Unfortunately when I try to assign a letter to the Disk 0s it only comes up with [Help] and I can't assign any letters or really interact with it in any way. So that's when I tried the command prompt. Sorry I missed that.
