In the same command window, type list volume and hit Enter. What this does is place you in the Disk Partition Manager and will list all disk volumes on your PC. We are looking for one that has the word recovery in its name. Copy and paste the result in your next reply, please. Leave the command window open.

I copied the windows system to the SSD almost a year ago. all was good so I recently reformatted volume 3 I thought you might have meant volume 2... no problem I also did volume 1:

In the command window type reagentc /info and hit enter. Please include it in your next reply. Thanks.

How to Restore a Deleted Recovery Partition in Windows 8. It will re-create the recovery partition needed to perform the creation of the recovery drive. Last edited: Mar 30, 2022

Z zbook Member Joined Oct 2, 2015 Posts 919 Apr 1, 2022 #18 For creating a new recovery partition I've used other methods and am interested in seeing whether this method worked or failed. Was the third party software free or did it require a fee? Did the commands work or were there error messages or codes? What were you attempting to do with a recovery partition when you did not have one and can you do it now? If the new recovery partition works as planned please post images or share links of these commands with results: (copy and paste all commands at one time) For share links please use one drive, drop box, or google drive.
