Discus and support My hard disk has 12 partitions after windows update, what can I do? in Windows 10 Drivers and Hardware to solve the problem; I'm not suggesting anything there.

    The installation process will not delete everything unless you manually delete every partition and take it down to 100% unallocated.

    You could try deleting everything but D because it looks like it is not a system related partition, and if you don't get the correct install on (newly created) C, just repeat and try again with all partitions wiped.

    Good luck,

    My hard disk has 12 partitions after windows update, what can I do?

    Hello Guys!!

    Thanks to everyone for your suggestions and ideas, specially to NavyLCDR from the Installation and Upgrade forum. I did what NavyLCDR suggested, deleted the last 2 partitions, extended my D partition and booted from a USB. During the installation I choosed custom and deleted each partition except D, and then installed in the new unallocated space. After that the installation went well and Windows 10 created the partitions. My hard drive now looks better!! *Wink
