run reagentc /disable
delete all files and folders on R:\
delete C:\Recovery folder
delete c:\windows/system32/recovery folder
Mount (or use 7zip) to extract the "windows/system32/recovery" folder to C:\
this will included the winre.wim and reagent.xml files
if the Partition is NOT hidden and has drive letter after the Reboot - then the Partition Attributes are NOT set properly
if all of thee above is correct then - Reagentc /enable - will work correctly
:rem == Windows RE Tools Partition ==

I have followed the above post. All the operations are successful, but WinRE is still disabled.

I am now running Windows PE, on which I have successfully enabled WinRE.

I can't do without Windows PE.
This reminds me of the little book that Indiana Jones carried around, with all his notes about finding the Lost Ark.
The Staff of Ra should be 6 cubits. Ah yes, but on the back it says: "Take back 2 cubits for the christian god whose Ark this is".
And then we have Matthew saying: "Snakes... why'd it have to be snakes".
@Matthew Wai
As to the issue of the Lost Recovery Partition... don't worry about it.
Start using Macrium Reflect if you aren't already.
Look... no Recovery Partition... computer works fine.
I don't know what snakes you are talking about.
I don't need Macrium Reflect because I have Windows PE, the solution.
