My recovery environment is enabled but I still can't create a recovery drive. My disk management has 4 sections, 499MB of nothing, 100mb Healthy (EFI System Partition), C: Healthy (boot, crash dump, basic data partition and D: Healthy (page file, basic data partition). What am I doing wrong?
i solve it Run cmd admin Diskpart disk 0 (disk n) check in disk menagment part 1 (usually 1 but u cant check in in disk menagment) assign letter S (u can put one of free letters) then follow video if u want remove that letter simply type diskpart disk 0 part 1 remove ..... solution 2 even easier (works for me) open cmd as administrator reagentc /info reagentc /enable (sometimas it works and operation is sucesfull sometimes is not sucesfull but what ever it says it should work) for example notsucesfull for me but i works smooooth also try reboot after this maybe it works after reboot ..... solutio 3 1. u have bunch of programs for recovery to download so they will works fine 2. u have microsoft recovery tools for download and flash on your usb easily to repair system when u needed 3. i can take a recovery image what is even better then recovery bc u have all files in it and tools (only u need a big hard drive to store it) 4. u have one tool similar like recovery it is disk repair tool... just i think that u must have a cd rom for that and disk. I dont know if works on usb. i hope it helps btw my eng is super bad xD sry
@Safaa Al-Hayali My friend i really need your help, i tried this and i feel like you would've actually helped me but when i get to the step where i type "cd Recovery\WindowsRE" it says "the system cannot find the specified path" (it says it in french bcs my system is in french but that's the equivalent in English) and i just gotta say it's been days and I'm still trying to reset my pc and i just can't because it won't let me create a recovery drive, creating a recovery drive is my only issue now and this unfound specified path is getting in the way, i really hope you help me asap thank you
Very clear description of an involved procedure, and it solved my problem, thanks Safaa. This is one of the most polished tech tutorials I have seen on RU-vid.
Sir its not working on my pc when I right click I can't even "change drive letter and paths"and sir when i type Recovery\WindowsRE it says is not recognized pls help it
What is the key binds to type in the words “WindowsRE” and “Recovery” cause it says it doesn’t recognize the words when I type it in manually. You could’ve at least explained that
1:00 So just anyway ? lol It would be nice if you explain what the heck we should do if we have the other system you mentioned. There is no option to right click on it, only help option
I didn't have the ISO but downloaded W10 media creation tool and put installation media on a USB. I then found recovery file as per your instructions and dragged to my desktop (copy and paste didn't work!) I then went to corresponding system32 recovery location on my system where the recovery file should be but was was absent, and simply dragged the one I'd just put on the desktop into that location. I tried again and was able to create recovery file. Thank you very much
Okay, I managed to do everything you said. However, when I got to the end it said windows re was already enabled. When I did the /info it confirmed it. My readout was the same as yours only my recovery is in partition 4... which I don't think matters. It still doesn't work. Btw, I couldn't ever get the letter to show up in management. When i right click the partition it just gives me a "help" option. That takes you to a website that doesn't help. I had to use diskpart. That gave me a drive I could use to do your other steps stuff. However, in windows management it still never showed. Had to use diskpart to remove it after done.
when i type cd Recovery\WindowsRE it says system cannot find specified path. i cloned my hard drive to a new ssd and it has caused me so many issues please help
i try to change the letter and path but when i right click on the system partition it is greyed out (i have the 2 part drive) edit: to fix this i didnt have to change the letter or anything, all i didnt was search for the recovery folder in the local c drive and i had moved the windows image in to ther because it was missing from there.
Whats the problem, when i cant give my system partizion a letter/name like you did. My booting drive is C like yours, but i cant rename the system part of the drive to E like you did. Kinda hard to do the steps then. :p
Thanks a lot! Very good! On my computer the volume 'recover' was 'hidden' , so i used the 'diskpart' do assign a letter to volume and 'attrib' to remove 'system' and after remove the 'hidden'. But all the rest worked ok! Thanks!
Hello, thank you for this video, all of my disks are healthy and allow me to add or change path/letter but the disks that say system are highlighted grey. Thank you for reading, seeking help. Also tried the steps and got to {cd Recovery\WindowsRE} and it said the ssytem cannot find the path specifed.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge through this video. It is indeed very helpful and has solved my problem with my pc with no recovery drive. Huge thanks
My disk partition is GPT. Now i have 2 more partition. 1. Windows RE tools 2. EFI partition. But i can not change partition letter. Now What can i do ?
ALSO... while I had a letter assigned to the partition I looked in it via "this pc" in windows. Everything was hidden. I couldn't even see folders. Is it possible this is why it's not working for me? They did show up via the dos prompt though when I was following your procedures. Just never in windows.
SOLVED... I think. I have a Dell and I think they did something funky with the system to prevent the process you are using. Anyway, I did some research and found a piece of software they provide called "Dell Recovery & Restore". Though the icon you get once installed is called "Dell Direct Key". Anyway, you download that from their site, install on the computer and then run it with your USB drive plugged in. The software finds it, changes it to a recovery disk, etc. Or at least that is what it looks like it did. It was rather easy once I knew the software existed. I can only guess that it was on the pc originally but got erased when I upgraded to windows 10.
No fooling around here. Direct and to the point. I have a picky system that keeps losing the path for some reason, and this fixes it every time! 100% ;-)
I watched other videos but this procedure seemed too complicated. You made less complicated and understandable. Thank you. You are excellent. I just wish you go a little slower and explain what you do and why as you go. 🙏
You mentioned the GPT briefly but did not tell how to assign a drive letter to either of those partitions. UEFI partition has all options disabled while Recovery partition has no options except 'Info'. Nice and simple video though, but didn't work for me as I could not get into my system drive in the first place. EDIT Update : Although this video was very simple! Another video by Murugan worked for me as the disk letter assigned was at partition level and focused for GPT based partition. ALl steps were fundamentally the same.
