    Indeed - I forgot reagentc /enable

    If that doesn't work double check the WinRE.wim is present. You should see this after assigning letter=t: Code: C:\Windows\System32>dir T:\Recovery\WindowsRE /a Volume in drive T is Windows RE tools Volume Serial Number is 5446-B5A3 Directory of T:\Recovery\WindowsRE 06/08/2016 17:31 <DIR> . 06/08/2016 17:31 <DIR> .. 16/07/2016 13:42 3,170,304 boot.sdi 06/08/2016 17:31 1,057 ReAgent.xml 06/08/2016 03:41 314,624,214 Winre.wim 3 File(s) 317,795,575 bytes 2 Dir(s) 190,341,120 bytes free C:\Windows\System32>[/quote]

    *Doh

    Thank you very much! That did it....

    And regarding the Partition size, yeah, it's huge, I'll look into it, I never finished installing everything... I'm going to leave that unallotacted space be for now, until I get everything running again and see how much I can shrink that, before I start using it...

    You know I now want to install that anniversary upgrade, right? *Biggrin

    Thanks for the help again!

    I don't remember having worked so much to get my computer going since when I was about 10, and I had the brilliant idea to install DOS over Win9x to play a very old game *Roflmao2

    With MTPW you can just right click the partition and choose Explore , no need for the Drive letter assignment , and in some cases it won't allow access in to the Recovery Folder anyway I have found, which MTPW ignores and opens the Folders.
