    What to do when system image recovery destroys data partitions


    Recently I had an issue with my computer caused by a feature that I confused with a virus the annoying and extremely invasive OSD volume controls.It had been a very long time since I had last used the image system restore feature probably around 2016, since this computer had never had major issues before.Attempts to restore the computer using restore points failed, so I went for the system image restore, which had been taken in Jan-24.The problem is that though I have 3 partitions C:\ for OS, D:\ for data, and E:\, I only backed up C:\ along with another system partition that is backed

    Recovery of partitioned disk from system image

    I have an SSD of 1TB. I partitioned half of it to be used for general storage and used the other half for installing Windows 10. This means there's 4 partitions:
    • 100MB (EFI System partition),
    • 499.99GB NTFS (boot, page file, crash dump, basic data partition),
    • 509MB (recovery partition),
    • 431.51 GB NTFS (Basic data partition)
    If I create a system recovery image and perform a recovery from that image, will the partition I have created for my general storage (431.51GB) be affected in any way? Or does recovery process just act on the 499.99 GB partition?
