Windows 10: Recovery Drive ISSUE (It's not there)

Greetings,

I think I know what I did wrong but I don't know how to make it right. Many of you have watched this journey on my Beelink 1Ghz Mini PC and so it's your last chance to help before we put her on eBay. (lol)

Okay. Some history first.

1. Had this thing for two years. It ran and updated Win10 fine.
2. Some months ago I decided to play with Ubuntu and Zorin. It was a nice place to visit... but I reinstalled Windows. It's running the latest version of 10 Home.

It's at this point I made an error of some sort. Because when I got to RESET THIS PC it cannot do a cloud reinstall and it also cannot find 'recovery environment'. This means I must create a Windows Recovery Media USB...

... which I don't mind doing. But my question is if there is a (relatively easy) way to make it create that recovery environment so that the next owner of this PC can do the Cloud Install or whatever.

TIA

:)

Optical Drive Issue

Hello Anak –

Appreciate your detailed return. Your added steps really helped.

Assuming I did the steps correctly, this is where I am now.

Screenshot 12 shows my CD Disc shortcut on my desktop.
Screenshot 10 shows the CD Drive shortcut listed in the “Send to” listing.
Screenshot 11 shows the “Send to” listing after the steps were taken, but the CD drive name is not listed.

So, it appears the steps did not work for me. And, I did try the steps, “If it still won’t do ……” and still no luck.

What do you think?
