    I agree and have trusted MajorGeeks for a long time.
    I'll use the file from MiniTool®, if I decide to use it at all.

    Thanks for the tip.
    I kind of figured something like that was being employed.
    I just wasn't exactly sure, but you confirmed it.

    One last tip,

    If and when you are ready to reinstall take a look at Shawn's full tutorial here ... Clean Install Windows 10 Windows 10 Tutorials

    This includes a good guide to cleaning the drive of previous partitions from within the installer and of course the other best practice for an install

    @Barman58 ,
    Another great tip, thanks.
    I'll be sure to look that tutorial over very closely. *Wink
    I think your suggestion to wait until the SCU and then do a clean install.
    It's the perfect plan.

    For clarity, even if you delete the 300 MB partition, it is very difficult to reclaim that space as partition managers cannot move the 128MB MSR partition. In fact, in Windows 10 clean installs, that partition is only 16 MB. You can however delete it and recreate it using diskpart commands. This partition is not even used and is for potential future requriements.
