    2.GB recovery drive of 16.9 free


    How to I get rid of the junk in my recovery drive?
    I have HP and installed windows 10 about a month or so ago.
    I do not have any issues with windows 10. I think this update caused my D drive to be so full

    Hard to tell what you are talking about - post image of your disk partitions, and provide more explanation.

    The 16.9 GB Drive is your HP Recovery drive , incase you ever need to set the Computer back to the way it was the day you purchased it ,(Factory condition), if it had Win8 when you got it ? then you can delete everything in that Drive if you REALLY need too and know what you are doing , so you Can get windows 10 Back instead , if you have a major issue.
