Windows 10: Deleted recovery and boot partitions; can no longer boot

Topgundcp, I have recreated the image so that's done. I also restored with that template onto my SSD. Now I have those partitions from the template on the SSD, and the image on my external. Can you explain exactly how to proceed, because I'm having trouble understanding this copy/drag with an image file talk.

 

Good. So now your SSD should show the 1st 3 partitions: 450MB, 100MB and 16MB and empty space, correct ?. Again from Macrium, click Restore tab and select the image that you made backup of C drive and select your SSD as destination then click on C drive, drag and drop on the empty space right after the 3 partitions as shown, click Next->Finish to copy:
NOTE: The top row should only contain your C-Drive from the backup, not the same as the screen shot




The final should look like as shown below:




Click on: Fix Windows Boot Problems then reboot.

 

I believe it only has the 450mb and the 99mb partitions. I'll try with those and see if it works.

 

If you look in Disk Management, the 16MB partition is hidden but it should show in Macrium.
You did not click on 1 and 2, did you ? 1 and 2 are only needed if you did not see the empty space.

EDIT: I have to go out now but I hope it should work.

 

Steps posted by "topgundcp" have solved the problem *Smile. Thanks to everyone who contributed.

 

Great. Glad that we could help. FYI, since you now know how to use Macrium. Before messing around with partitions, create a backup image so if anything goes wrong, you can restore it in no time. In addition, if your SSD is broken or your Windows get attacked by virus, unbootable etc... you always have the backup to restore from.

 

I used to use macrium reflect for imaging/ restoring but hadn't done it in some time.

Instead of linking back to prior topic for How To..

This topic would be a better choice, as the title is more fitting..

 

Ah! Gpt is what, say Mac Bootcamp uses? I haven't come across it all that much in regular PCs. Last time I bootcamped a Mac it made me do gpt. Or, did it itself. Usually I install Windows 7/8/10 from install medium and it makes MBRs
