Diskpart Missing Information

br4 · 10 Jun 2023

Thank you for your reply.

Here's a current disk management screen shot:

Diskpart Missing Information-diskmgt.jpg

I'm guessing my computer is booting from the S drive because the BOOT folder on C has only one folder, named sm_da. The BOOT folder on S has 39 folders (most of which are named similarly to en-US) and 8 files (BCD, BCD.LOG, BCD.LOG1, BCD.LOG2, BOOTSTAT.DAT, bootuwf.dll, bootvhd.dll, memtest.exe).

Here are the results from the reagentc /info command:
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> reagentc /info
Windows Recovery Environment (Windows RE) and system reset configuration
Information:

How would you suggest I proceed?

You could sort out the partitions this way.
1 Make file backups of E, S, T
2 Make a system image of C
3 As a precaution against unforeseen problems, backup your drivers - Backup and Restore Device Drivers - TenForumsTutorials
4 Disconnect S, T
5 Reinstall Windows 10 on the remaining disk making sure you clear all partitioning in the procedure [i.e. normal clean install steps 14/15] - Clean Install - TenForumsTutorials
6 Repartition the disk to get back your E drive space
7 Restore the C:\ drive only from your system image to overwrite the new installation
8 Reconnect S, T and reformat both those disks
9 Check & set the E, S, T drive letters back to what you want
10 Restore the file backups of E, S, T

I do appreciate that somebody else might post a less time-consuming solution,
Best of luck,
Denis

You have to isolate the options. You have 3 drives set as active that are candidates to be a boot option.

You have to find out if your drive 1 is self booting. Shut down and detach (SATA or power cable) drive 0 and 2 and see if you can boot from drive 1 normally. If positive you can set drive 0 and 2 as non active. With Mini Tool you can set the partitions as non active.

My S disk is marked as Active & System, my C disk is marked as Boot, E disk Active. Can I, within Windows, modify this so that C is Boot, Active, and System and S is just Active? I'm guessing I should make E (on the same disk as C) as Non Active.

As I noted earlier, the Boot folder on S is much larger than that on C.

If not doable, I have no problem reloading Windows, other than the amount of time and effort.

Thank you for your suggestions.

I do not see, in Partition Assistant how to make a partition non active.

Yes you can give instructions to modify so that C is Boot, Active, and System.
But it may already is. Why don't you do a simple test as I suggested?
