    Lost recovery partition

    Hello, I see that you are having issues with recovery partition. I would suggest you using the diskpart command in the command prompt. First, open up the comand prompt as an administrator, then type in diskpart. Now, type in list disk, and look for the
    recovery partition drive. Follow the steps in the link below:

  3. Lost recovery partition

    Hi Mike

    I´m an Independant Advisor

    While I´m reading the information you probably by mistake erase your main partition instead of the external drive.

    This happened to me, and when I get noticed of this It was too late.

    I tried to recover information of this drive, with some program that supose to recover info in this cases.

    I put some step to do before use a recover partition software

    " How to recover deleted partition using cmd?

    In some cases, we can undo Diskpart clean command in order to undelete partition. But, this method does not work on all partition loss issue. If this method cannot get back your lost partition, you should go to Method 2 and Method 3 to recover data.

    Step 1 Open Disk Management to view which partition is lost.

    You can access Disk Management by right-clicking Start menu and click Disk Management. If a partition is deleted, the disk space will be marked as Unallocated. Remember the partition size.

    Step 2 Open Command Prompt as administration and type Diskpart in the window and press Enter key.

    Step 3 Type command list disk and press Enter key so that you can see all storage devices on the computer.

    Step 4 Type command select disk # and press Enter. Replace # with the number of the hard drive that needs recovering lost partition.

    Step 5 Type assign letter=G and press Enter (G is a drive letter chosen randomly).

    Step 6 Close Command Prompt when you see "Diskpart successfully assigned the drive letter or mount point".

    Note: if you are not familiar with diskpart commands, do not try any commands without fully knowing its function. Some commands such as "clean" delete all partitions and data on selected disk.

    If the problem continue please try with the next link that may help you to recover your lost partition.

    Lost partition - Need help

    W7 Hard drive partition issue

    to get rid of that 100 meg windows partition that setup creates for you on a new install on a blank hdd:

    - press shift+f10 when on the partition management screen in setup <-- this opens a command prompt
    - diskpart <-- start the windows command line partition management tool
    - list disk <--- list the installed hdds in this computer for the next step
    - select disk 0 <- might have to replace 0 with the number of the correct disk
    - clean <-- this will erase all data on the disk you selected one step up- dont use the wrong disk!
    - create partition primary <- creates a primary partition taking up all space on the drive, adjust the command if necessary
    - exit, exit to exit diskpart and the command prompt
    - click refresh in partition manager and select your newly created partition and install to that
