    Do we need to keep system protection on for system reserved partition


    I have kept the system protection on for my OS Drive i.e C drive. In case something bad happen, I can restore to earlier restore point.My query is that should I keep the system protection on for system reserved partition also. This is for the knowledge purpose, otherwise I am already having Macrium Reflect.

    :)

    Recovery Partition vs System Reserved Partition

    Thanks for all the info guys.

    Both original & target SSD's are listed as MBR as opposed to UEFI. I may have created a partition unknowingly in getting the original/new unformatted drive recognized, but I don't recall taking any steps that Windows did not step me through.

    Not that an upgrade to WIN 10 Pro is contemplated, but I suspect that having no System Reserved partition will not allow that to happen, after seeing how the original WIN 10 upgrade created a problem for some WIN 7 users that had a smaller 100mb vs 500mb System Reserved partition.

    Do we need to keep system protection on for system reserved partition

    Win7 System Reserved Partition Full

    Isn't that what the system reserved partition is ? Or is it just a backup incase the windows boot files get corrupt?
