Good morning,


1 - In Disk Manager, the System Reserved partition is name. Can I
add a letter and a name to it or not?


2 - In Regedit, appears three strange entries in the Mounted Devices
folder.


see attached image


Thank's
Clamarc

Hello there :)

1) No, you definitely shouldn't try. That partition contains the Boot Manager, Boot Configuration, Windows Recovery Environment and Bitlocker files and keys. Even the smallest amount of damage will stop your computer from booting. Why would you even try to fiddle in there? You can do no good at all and all you will cause is harm to your computer.

2) No, don't delete them either. They are perfectly normal, part of the Volume Shadow Copy Service virtual volumes and a necessary part of Transactional File System (TxF), Transactional Registry (TxR), Windows Update, System Restore, quick MFT search tools and and a whole variety of programs which use them to avoid locked files. Just leave them alone.

Honestly, I would really question your motivations behind this thread. You presumably have a working computer. If you keep fiddling around in the registry and partition tables looking for things to delete, very soon you will not have a working computer.

Just leave it alone and stop looking to delete things. It's beyond silly.

I made these inquiries because I reinstalled the System due to a power outage that occurred during a
System upgrade. After reinstallation the boot took 3 to 4 min. to finish. Before reinstalling my boot
partition has a name and a letter and so I made these inquiries. I'll keep trying to figure out why the start
this slow and wanted to eliminate the possibility regarding partition and volumes I sent you .. just that!

Hi again,

The very first boot after a new installation or major Windows Update will always be extra slow - this is perfectly normal. Have you tried rebooting the computer several times, and is it still very slow?

1) Is the slowness before or after you sign in to your user account?

2) Have you tried looking in the Task Manager startup tab for items with a High boot impact and disabling any which you don't need?

3) Updating drivers, through Windows Update, Device Manager and/or your system manufacturer's website would also be worthwhile as these get wiped out by the clean install and may now be quite out of date.
 
niemiro,


I have already checked all of these alternatives and as the problem persists I ran the WD hd analysis program and, unfortunately,
it seems that the power outage has damaged it. I'll look at the severity of the damage so I can make a better decision on that.


Consider the post as finalized.

Well that's an unfortunate conclusion but well done for figuring it out and thanks for letting me know.

All the best.
