    Recovery of windows and list volume partitions


    My body deleted windows 10 operating system off of his computer on accident. I am using a USB installation media to reload the operating system. However i have found that the partitions for his system are missing. i will list what i have found while in the Command prompt. I need some assistance with recreating his partitions so i can install windows. It does not matter to recover any files he had on the laptop.

    • Launched "Diskpart"
    • "list disk"
    • Disk 0 465 GB
    • Disk 1 14 GB
    • "Select Disk 0"
    • Disk 0 is now the selected disk.
    • "list vol"
    • Volume 0 C ESD-USB FAT32 Removable 14GB Healthy

    This is how i found the missing partitions. Tried to "Created partition primary" but i got the following error message. "Diskpart has encountered an error: Data error cyclic redundancy check. See the system event log for more information."


    I am not sure what to do here. could anyone advise me as to how i can check or fix this.

    :)

    Windows Recovery partition missing from Volume list of Disk Management

    Following the latest updates 18363.719 and 18363.720, I noticed that in the Volume list of Disk Management, the Windows Recovery partition created when clean installed Windows 10, was missing.
    It does show in the graphical representation of the drives, though.

    When run reagentc /info to check recovery partition existence it shows as partition 4 and it also shows in diskpart

    Something I noticed, in the screenshots above which probably shows that the problem, although seems to be solved by the recommendation of @Kyhi, is most likely a screw-up from Microsoft.

    In the two screenshots above, in the first one the EFI partition and in the second one both the EFI and Recovery partitions show as 100% free space, i.e. not used at all.
    This is not the case for both of them as they both have data written.

    So it seems that it's not just the Recovery partition not showing in the Volume list, but a more complicated issue, which needs Microsoft's attention!

    Windows Recovery partition missing from Volume list of Disk Management

    As I said before...since Jimmy is here, if there is a a solution, it will be given!

    As Jimmy suggested changing the last bit of the partition's attribute from 0 to 1 (made the partition Required), takes care of the problem.
    The question is, why this should be done as the partition's attribute was never changed from what the Windows 10 installation set it and it was functioning perfectly before...but I guess that is something MS has to answer!!

    Just to make clear what needs to be done, in case someone else faces the same issue:

    Before:

    After running the following diskpart coammands:
    Code:

    A huge thanks to Jimmy for his precious help!!!*Smile

    And one last, more technical, note:
    GPT attributes
    - 0x0000000000000001. Specifies that the partition is required by the computer to function properly.
    - 0x8000000000000000. Specifies that the partition will not receive a drive letter by default when the disk is moved to another computer or when the disk is seen for the first time by a computer.
