    After every update in the fast ring I delete the recovery partition and extend the c:/ since I never use the recovery partition, is this a bad thing ?

    Provided you have a bootable install medium, never need automated repair, and don't want to boot to Safe Mode by normal means, should be fine.

    And you can always recreate recovery partition. Kari has excellent tut for custom recovery, but there is system app to do basic.

    Not used this tool before.. anybody have experience with it? Guess this is for thumb drives...

    Start / type recovery and Click on Recovery drive:

    You delete recovery partitions and are able to continue upgrading Windows without fail, then you're a lucky one. Windows used to keep winre.wim file on C drive if you clean install, create new partition to fill whole disk and not create a separate partition, maybe not anymore.

    As of today, attempts to enter recovery mode invariably are met with the absurd lie :
    "there are no administrator accounts on this PC".
    (The admin accounts are just fine, and the recov ptn is intact, visibly unchanged.)
    I want my recovery mode.
    Please, how to create a recov ptn without any kind of resinstallation of Windows?

    Hi,See e.g.
    How to Restore a Deleted Recovery Partition in Windows 8
    (Ignore the ref. to Win 8- things haven't changed)

    from section headed
    Create a New Recovery Partition in Windows 8

    More technical stuff for reference:
    Restoring Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) in Windows 10 | Windows OS Hub

    Note that a recovery partition will be created on any upgrade action whether that's
    - an in-place upgrade repair install which keeps all progs, data and most settings
    - a feature update (and we're expecting one to be rolled out over the next couple of months).

    Hi all,
    as a new proud Windows 2004 user I found the following situation on my 4TB hard disk:

    Recovery / EFI / C: / Recovery / D: / E:

    As I gather the first recovery partition is obsolete.

    How do I get rid of it?

    Thanks for hints!

    Any partition manager deals with .. partitions. In this case use a 3rd party partition manager to delete it and then extend C: into the unallocated space if you wish. However that also means moving the EFI partition.

    Always advisable to back up - routine and regular disk imaging of all Windows partitions and any others you wish is stronlgy recommended here time and again.`
