Windows 10: New Partition after Update

I have a Windows 10 64bit Pro System

Yesterday i restarted my PC to update and now i have a new Partition (F).

It is 96MB with 69,9MB free.

I cant open it. When i try first asks me for Admin, then it tells me i need to open "Security"get access the Folder.

When i it opens the Options for the Folder on the first Tab.

It's not listed as (F) in the Disk Management. So i dont now where this is coming from.

Does anyone have an Idea?

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

 

Getting a new PC tommorow...

• Set up your hardware
• Insert CD/DVD install
• Format a partition of 30GB as a quick format
• Install the OS
• Create a new partition D: for data, and S: for setupfiles
• Put all your install files into S
• Before installing, run windows update
• Once up to date, reboot
• Install AV
• Update AV
• NOW install any drivers
• And then any software
• Top Utils: ccleaner, defraggler, tclock, utramon, winrar, irfanview, wordweb, malwarebytes, speedfan,
• Now create a partition copy of your C: into a hidden partition. If you evey need to reformat, you just copy the setup from the hidden partition
• You might want Acronis Disk Director to do the previous step. Easy

 

Move Win7 64 image from a partition NTFS to a new drive

EDIT: After reading your first post again, is there any reason that you would now need GPT? Are you just trying to move the windows install to a new disk or is there a new motherboard involved?

If you are already booting to an NTFS partition, then it makes me wonder if after copying to the new drive, the partition isn't getting marked as Active.

Following the same steps I posted above for startup repair, you can get to a command prompt and use diskpart to see if this is the case.

Code: In the command prompt: diskpart list disk select disk 0 (disk number may be different if you have other disks connected.) list partition select partition 0 (partition number number may vary, but you want to see the boot partition which is the same as your windows partition according to the screenshot on the OP) detail partition (This should have Active: Yes or No. If it says no, since we have the partition selected, you can just use the following command in diskpart) active[/quote]
