Encore Mini WT7-C-100 - how to delete recovery partition

Hi all,
I own an Encore Mini WT7-C-100 tablet with only 16GB storage.
After following all possible and existing solutions and recomendations in order to free up storage, free space on C: is limited to barely 500MB.
On the other hand, I noticed that the resovery partitiobn is almost 3GB large.
Though it seems that there is no way to remove this partition and extend C: in order to gain more disk space (3,5GB would be more than enough for me). Right clicking on this partition in Disk Management displays no avaliable actions (except "Help").
Please notice that I have already created a copy of the recovery partion on a USB drive (various posts in various forums indicated that Windows, after finishing with the copy on the USB, would propose for deleting the recovery parition but not such thing happened).
Please advice how to delete the recovery partition or for other actions in order to free up disk space in C:

Try to start the recovery using the HDD recovery procedure.
If you want to access the boot menu on please press and hold the "Vol+" button and turn on the device pressing power button.
After a few seconds the boot option menu will appear.
Then select "HDD Recovery" and the rest of the procedure is similar to the Windows 8 recovery process you can find here:

If this doesn’t help, try to recover the Toshiba WT8 / Encore tablet from a created recovery media

If you don't have the recovery media, you could order this here:

  • MicroSD card for Encore Mini WT7 tablet

    Hi,
    I looked through the user's manual and can't seem to find any info on what the maximum size (GB) that the tablet supports.
    Can anyone recommend a compatible memory card for this device?
    Thanks for any help.

    Hi
    I guess the card reader built in the Encore Mini WT7 is very similar to card reader built in the Encore WT8 or WT10.
    Therefore I think that the supported max capacity of memory card is 128GB

  • How to delete a partition entirely?

    I had a bootcamp partition, and I can't figure out how to completely get rid of it. I've erased everything ON the partition but I can't seem to figure out how to restore the partition's memory back to the original Macintosh HD partition.
    Since I used disk utility to erase it, bootcamp assistant won't give me any options as to how to delete the partition. It's using up 50gb of my harddrive and I need the space for my original partition.
    Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated.
    Thanks so much

    Select the drive in the sidebar, click on the Partition tab, delete that partition, and drag the slider at the bottom of the Mac OS X partition as far down as it will go.

  • How to recover deleted "Recovery Partition"

    Ok so I apologize in advance if this story is a bit long, and horrifying (actually it's probably entertaining xD). I purchased the Lenovo y510p gaming laptop on back on July 14th 2014. I got the laptop, and it just didn't work for me. It didn't play the games I wanted it to, it had overheating issues, the keyboard had a really sharp edge making typing uncomfortable as well. After installing Sony Vegas and Avast, and just shifting some of my personal photos/music over, I made a backup of the laptop using the OneKey Recovery software. This backup was made to one of my 500GB external hard drives. So I then decided that I just didn't like the laptop, and it was time to return it. I called Newegg, and got my RMA all ready to go. Because I had lot of my personal files and programs, I decided the fastest way to delete everything would be to use the OneKey Recovery by Lenovo, and do a factory reset. At the time, I didn't think anything of this then simply putting the laptop back to exactly how I got it. I even booted it up after the factory reset, and it looked just like the first day I got it. Fast forward 2 weeks, and my RMA is denied from Newegg:   Your RMA (RMA Number: 60470880) return was received and sent to our Inspections Department for closer examination. 34-313-740 NB LENOVO IDEAPAD Y510P 59406636 RTSystem has been modified/altered original manufacturers operating system has been removed cannot access restore partition, this voids Newegg warranty. Unit cannot be accepted or resold as received.  So I was completely shocked as to how I had managed to delete the recovery partition, I didn't modify the OS in anyway, and I phoned Newegg to check what was going on. They confirmed that the tech people at the returns department could not reset the laptop properly, because the recovery partition had been deleted. So, the laptop is being shipped back to me this week, and my question was what on earth could I do to recover this "deleted recovery partition?"  If the OneKey Recovery still works, I don't see why it woudn't, then I can restore the backup that I made on my external hard drive from Day 1. That should bring back this alleged "recovery partition" that's been causing all hell to break loose lol. If however, I can't access that OneKey Recovery, I believe I'm in a huge pile of trouble. Newegg said that if I can manage to recovery that lost "recovery partition" then they will honor my RMA and refund my money.  At this point in time, I'm trying to salvage my situation, and think and act quickly as Newegg does have a 30day only return policy. I didn't do much with the laptop when I had it other than test a few games, so I honestly have NO IDEA how I could've deleted the recovery partition. But I'm not thinking of that anymore, and thinking ahead as to how I can recovery this deleted "recovery partition." Thanks for reading this horror story, and I really appreciate any responses.   

    Man I am overwhelmed by the amount of thoughtful and informative responses I'm receiving, thanks so much guys. @Rocky- They are shipping the laptop back to me this week, I should have it by Friday. The first thing I'll do is go into Disk management to see if the recovery drives are there. Tbh, I doubt Newegg would purposely rip me off, so I'm expecting the drives to be missing. If they're not however, I'm taking pictures and probably dancing because I'll be so happy haha. If the drives are NOT there, I'll see if I can load up OneKey Recovery, and restore my backup, and go from there. Also yes I'm sure I bought it from Newegg, no third parties. @neok- That's exactly what I was thinking! I did the OneKey Recovery, then packed the laptop up and sent it for shipping. Then I get a RMA denied and I was completely shocked. That made me wonder if you could only do the OneKey Recovery once maybe, but I contacted Lenovo and they gave me a letter, written, saying what the OneKey software does. I then forwarded this email to the supervisor at Newegg, but she told me that the fact of the matter is that the "recovery partition" is not accesible anymore, and they're not honoring my RMA unless I retreive it. They were very adament about this. Also thanks for those links, I did a few Google searches myself and those are generally what I found. The reoccuring theme in those cases seems to be people resizing their partitions. I did not do that, simply played a few games, didn't like the laptop, did a factory reest, and boom. That's all I did. If I'm unable to use OneKey Recovery when I get the laptop back this upcoming Friday, I'll consult with those links. Thanks! @Zoltan- Yeah honestly I want to be furious with Newegg, but then seeing as they're really quite strong on their grounds that I somehow deleted it, I'm trying to think back to what I did. However, I find it hard to believe that I would delete the recovery partition, even accidently, because I only had the laptop for a day, and all I was really doing was transferring my photos/music, and installing a few programs. My desperate last attempt to salvage my money will be calling Lenovo and requesting the recovery media, even if it costs $60 or up. The only problem with this is that they might take a while to ship the disc. I only have until around August 14th before Newegg's 30day return policy kicks in, although I spoke with the Newegg supervisor, and she granted me 1-2 days of grace. I could order the CD right now, before I even get the laptop shipped to me, but that's risky seeing as I might not need it at all, if I can still access the OneKey Recovery. The more I think about it though, if I explain my entire situation to Lenovo, they might send me a free CD which I could then order right now, saving me a few days, and serving as more of a precaution then anything. Thanks so much for the replies guys, last Friday was the most stressful day of my life, this RMA was denied, and then I thought about it all day at work. I think I could've been more aggressive with Newegg, but I have no real legal documentation to show them. I mean yes even if I did delete the recovery partition, which I didn't, but let's suppose I did. Deleting software is still not any means for flat out rejecting an RMA, and refusing to refund $1300. I just wish I had some sort of legal document to refer Newegg over to . 

  • Recreate deleted recovery partition in Lion

    My iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) came with Lion installed. I deleted the recovery partition when I triple booted with Windows 7, Ubuntu and Mac OS.
    Is there any way to re-create a deleted recovery partition in Lion? I've read that you can download Lion from the App Store & write it to a USB using the Disk Utility.
    I am currently dual booting with Mac OS X Lion (10.7.4) and Windows 7 (installed via Boot Camp).
    Please give step-by-step instructions if possible.

    Actually, have you tried the Internet Recovery Firmware mentions in the article I sent you before?
    If you have a newer Mac system, then as long as you have the latest firmware updates installed you should be able to use Apple's Internet Recovery feature and can bypass the need for a local Recovery HD partition. Apple recently released new EFI firmwareupdates for mid-2010 MacBook and Mac Mini systems that enable Internet Recovery, but there are also updates available for newer 2011 Mac models that do the same thing. With the Internet Recovery enabled in the Mac's firmware, to use it you just need to restart with the Command-R keys held down. If there is no local Recovery HD partition available, then the system will ask you to join a network. You will need a Wi-Fi connection available that is secured with a WPA or WPA2 password (other forms of connection such as WEP and certificate-based authentication will not work), and then the system will download and boot from a recovery image file obtained from Apple's servers.

  • How to create recovery partition in new(changed) HDD.

    my new HP pavilion g4 laptop HDD have crased, then I replce it by HP care. I upload original win 7 by recovery disk(DVD) but when I open my computer it shows only one partition (C drive, there is no recovery partition and HP tool.
    So how to creates recovery partition by recovery disk(DVD)...........please help me.

    Creating the recovery partition
    Right-click the start orb, and start 'Disk Management'.
    Shrink the C: drive by let's say 20-30GB.
    Then create a new Partition and assign the R: label to it and name it RECOVERY.
    Then open command prompt as administrator and type: 'recimg /createimage <directory>',
    In this case: 'recimg /createimage R:\' to save it on the new partition.
    This step may consume a lot of time.
    Now we need to register the newly created recovery image: 'recimg /setcurrent <directory>'
    'recimg /setcurrent R:\'
    Voila you are done.
    Restoring from recovery partition
    You may want to use this restoring method by default, because it is the easiest way to do so if your recovery partition is still intact. If not, look at the other recovery methods to see which suits you best. This is usually the way you reset or refresh your Windows installation if you purchase a computer from a brand like Lenovo instead of building one yourself
    Press the Windows-key + C to open the charms bar or swipe in from the right.
    Click Settings.
    Click Change PC Settings.
    Click Update & Recovery in the menu on the left.
    Click Recovery.
    If all your documents are safe and sound in your user folder, you can use Refresh your PC without affecting files. However I still recommend taking a back-up... If you want to do a complete reinstallation of Windows and also clean your user folder in the process then choose Remove everything and reinstall Windows.

  • Sir i have deleted recovery partition from my laptop

    sir how to get recovery partition back to my hard disc without using dvd's into which i hav rided recovery media creation

    Hi,
    It's certainly odd that the discs haven't re-created the Recovery Partition - the only suggestion I have at the moment is to try the process again as follows.
    First, click the Start Menu, open Computer and double-click Local Disk C - you should see a folder called swsetup.  This will contain all the driver installers and practically all of the software installers for your notebook - back this up to an external device/media.
    Next, back-up all your personal files etc to an external device/media.
    Shutdown the notebook.  Tap away at the esc key as soon as you press the Power Button to launch the Start-up Menu.  Insert your first Recovery Disc.  Select 'Boot Options' in he Start-up Menu, use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and then hit enter - press any key if prompted to start the Recovery Process.  Choose the 'Factory Reset' option.
    When the process has completed and you are in Windows, hold down the Windows Key and press R.  Into the Run Box type compmgmt.msc and hit enter.  Click Disk Management in the left pane and when the partitions have loaded, see if the Recovery Partition D is now listed.

  • Deleted Recovery Partition and It no longer shows up on reboot! HELP!

    Accidently deleted Recovery Partition and it no longer shows up on reboot! HELP! I'm trying to install windows on my mac so i do some CAD, but i don't want to proceed without getting the Recovery Partition back.

    If you deleted the Recovery volume, the only way to create your Recovery HD again is by reinstalling OS X. If your Mac came with the OS X version you have, start in Internet Recovery (holding Command, Option and R keys) and reinstall OS X

  • How to delete "Other" partition in yellow color that appears when I connect my devices to the laptop, it's a giant one (4 GB)

    Hello, I would like to know how to delete the yellow partition named "Other" (in italian "Altro") that appears when I connect all my devices to the laptop. This partition in Ipad comes with 4 Gb that for an instrument of 16 seems a bit too also because it far exceeds anything else. So far not been able to find useful information and is a very common problem. Thank you.

    Thank you very much, but it's not so simple. I read somewhere in this same forum that:
    I quote: "That large of "other" is corrupt data. Try restoring your phone from backup first, followed by syncing your content back to the phone. If restoring from backup does not fix things, you will have to restore as a new device to get rid of it. There is no way to directly delete it, other than restoring your phone."
    First of all it's terrible, (but we know that itunes is very far to work properly, it's a store) and how many times a day we should make a restoring? and if it does not have we to buy another device? I cannot believe that there aren't other solutions.
