  1. How do I get my WinRe back?


    I have a laptop running on Windows 11 version 22H2.About a year ago, I dual-booted by laptop with Linux Ubuntu as the other OS. Two days ago, I then decided to delete my Linux dual-boot. This meant deleting the disk partition that I created for it I reserved around 120 GB for that partition. After deleting that partition, I then obtained an unallocated space 120 GB. I wanted to extend the volume of my primary disk partition Windows C: with the unallocated space. However, I was unable to simply just 'Extend volume' because the 'Healthy Recovery Partition' was in the middle. This meant I

    How do I (mount and) copy the contents of (hidden) WinRE?

    I have a WinRE partition at the end of my SSD and I want to move it down following the Win NTFS system partition so I can install Linux in the fourth position.

    This SuperUser suggests copying the contents of WinRE.

    I would recommend assigning a drive letter to it and obtaining a copy of the WinRE.wim file. You'll need it to move the recovery environment somewhere later. You can obtain a copy of this file in other ways, but it will be easier just to get it ahead of time.

    How to make a hidden partition visible says how to launch Disk Management to access Admin Privileges. But the steps say to right click on the hidden partition, but Disk Management never give me anything more than “help” popup.

    WinRE, add boot menu entry

    It is possible - as you are looking to add a "Ramdisk" boot option - but instead of listing a Boot.wim you will list as WinRE.wim
    The process depends on the WinRE location and whether Legacy or Uefi Boot Menu

    How do I get my WinRe back?

    Win 10 can't boot or repair after interrupted update  

    Thanks, just realized I already tried the renaming registry hive to .001 in step 5 of my original post before. Thanks for reminding me about it, I undid the rename instead and now I can launch CMD from my laptop's own WinRE instead of the Recovery USB's WinRE.

    What is the final step you're suggesting? I can free up even more disk space if required, just stopped at 70GB cause I thought that's plenty.
