    Hi Robert,

    Recovery partition is backup wherein the Recovery Environment is stored. It is usually created by the manufacturer's laptop. Installing Creators Update is one of the major updates and it will not create a new recovery partition.

    Get back to us if you need further assistance.

    That is exactly what ANY build upgrade does or else you could not reset pc correctly if you tried to do that.

    Okay, thanks. Well, I didn't know to be honest. I -thought- old stuff would be saved into a Windows old folder on the same partition.
    Anyway, thanks again.
