Reinstall Windows 10 to new hard drive

Hi Rodolpho,

We want to know about the issue you're having with your recovery drive. Please answer the questions below:

• Are you trying to reinstall Windows 8 or Windows 10?
• If you already upgraded to Windows 10, were you able to create a new copy of the recovery drive?

We suggest creating a new copy of the recovery drive and then follow the steps provided by Andre Da Costa above this thread.

Update us with the outcome so we can assist you further.

 

Can't access files after Win 10 reinstall on new hard drive.

I recently did a clean reinstall of Win 10 (from existing Win 10) on a new hard drive (new boot drive) using a USB memory stick boot method. I now cannot access any of my encrypted files and documents that remained on my secondary data drive, which I did
not alter during the Win 10 reinstall to the new hard drive.

I still have my old hard drive, but cannot boot windows from the old hard drive with the old Win 10 on it (which I tried out of desperation.

Any help appreciated -- I realize hope is slim, but you'd think a reinstall of windows would enable me the same permissions.

One thing differently I did do with this reinstall -- I created a Microsoft Account and now log in with that new identity, which I hadn't done previously.

Obviously I know just enough to really dork myself.

 

Reinstalling Win 10 to a replacement hard drive

I have an HP Pavilon desktop which I upgraded to WIN 10 from WIN 7. The hard drive is starting to fail with a BIOHD-8 error.Before the drive fails I would like to create a set of restore or recovery disks so I can buy a new one terabyte drive to replace
the current 750 gig drive and reinstall the current version of Win 10. Will creating an ISO disk image work if I used a one terabyte external USB to create the image and then replaced the drive and copied the image back? I'd like to use a set of DVD to create
an image or recovery drive so I wouldn't have to "waste" the external Hard drive. The steps in Control panel create a Windows System Repair Disk and a System Image but it says its for WIN 7. What am I missing? Seems that the system image created for DVDs (64
bit) would occupy 14.37 gig or four DVDs.
