Windows 10: Accidently deleted D drive Including administrator user

Hi,


With the intention of merging the drives I have deleted D partition via disk management but unfortunately I understood users' folders were in D drive so as a result I cannot restart my PC now, and now neither reset option nor restore point option work.


Is there any way to start windows? It's Lenovo Thinkpad X1 with genuine Windows 10.


Hope it will be recovered (, no worries with data in it, all I want to start it.


Thanks for your help

Accidentaly deleted an administrator user

I assume you would like to ask how to recover from this accident. If so then you could do this:

1. Use a bootable Windows Repair flash disk* to boot the machine into Windows Repair Mode.
2. Use System Restore to set Windows back to a point before your accident.

If you would like to ask how to prevent such accidents then the answer is simple: Make sure to have a fully tested and documented spare admin account, same as you have a spare house key. Having a single admin account is high risk stuff.

* The command RecoveryDrive.exe, when executed on any Win10 PC, will create such a disk. Do NOT copy the system files. You could also use a Win10 installation DVD.
