Clearing space in the System Reserved Partition

Hi Gautham,



Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.



I understand that you are facing issues with Windows 10. I apologize for the inconvenience caused to you.

The issue could occur if system reserve partition is size is less.

To assist you better, please provide the information:

1. When is the current size of the System Reserved Partition? Is there is enough space in the partition?

2. Are you able to view the folders through Minitool Partition Wizard?

I suggest you to try to increase the space allocation for System Reserve Partition. The below steps can also be implemented in Windows 10 to increase the size of System Reserve Partition.

Clearing space in the System Reserved Partition

On MBR disk, Windows 10 requires a 500MB system reserved partition, while 100MB in Windows 7, so you can try to extend system reserved partition.



In disk management, you can only extend partition using the unallocated space next to its right side. so even if you shrink D: drive, the option to extend the efi partition is still grayed out. My suggestion is to use an third party software, AOMEI
Partition Assistant, both the standard (free) or the Professional(paid) version can extend partition as long as there is unallocated space on that hard drive. to see more information read:

Fix "We Couldn’t Update the System Reserved Partition" Error

Windows built-in tools won't allow you to delete system reserved partition. You need to use third party software to make a bootable media, and the boot form the media to delete it.

 

Reserve System E

I checked the recycle bin there is no system reserved E listed. I was on a page that showed me the stuff in my system ( please know that I don't know what words to write ). The menu listed reserved system E. I right clicked on it and got another menu with several options. One of them was to "unallocate" it. Since I had previously seen a solid red line on system reserved E and kept getting pop up messages that system reserved E was full and no more space was available, I decided to "unallocate" it thinking that would free up space. Instead the action , I guess, Uninstalled it.
