My recovery option is vanished at startup of windows 10 "F11" ?

[Fahadi_20]

Guys i just delete my C drive and and install windows 10 from microsoft genuine installation. I am activated through OEM but now only one issue left. The issue is that i am unable to see Recovery Option which comes by pressing F11 after choosing Esc at startup. Kindly tell me how it will come back ? what it is in Microsoft Windows recovery issue or issue with original files which come with HP. Thank You!

It may be that you have wiped the recovery area, and there is nowhere to install a replacement.

I am talking about this kinda recovery which comes from booting of windows 10. I am missing this recovery option at my startup through F11 button. So, what should i download from your given links. Thanks

Hi

Maybe nothing.

You say you deleted the C:, and what about the other partitions?

F11 is a way of putting back to Factory Fresh condition.  I deleted my F11 option and use a DVD/USB as a backup with the HP drivers fro the support section.

Turn on the computer and repeatedly press the F11 key, about once every second,
until the Choose an option screen is displayed, and then continue.

There is no mention of the ESC key.

Maybe you should BUY the Recovery Media from HP as it seems you didn't make your own.

So how much of the HDD did you actually use?

Does Paragon Partition Manager show any Recovery Area Partitions?

All in all we are a little light on details.

Make, Model etc.

Download and store the drivers on a DVD/USB along with the W10 .iso installer.

HP Elite x2 1012 G1

Windows 10 Pro

256GB HD

4 GB memory

funny thing i attempted to remove my Personal files ect

Settings >Recovery > reset this PC   remove personal files and reinstall OS

something went horrifically wrong and literally everything *poof* gone.

no recovery partition, not even an option for startup when pressing esc repeatedly after powering on ,

only startup menue appear options are :  diagnose memory, diagnose storage and exit

seriously sad, used the recovery on my thumb drive and now,  microsoft thinks i dont have the correct product key to activate.

you have any ideas, because i have not located ANY lost partitions

If diagose is coming at your startup with black screen background and along with hardware diagnose option also. Then its mean you have changed your boot from UEFI to Legacy. And reason is that you have installed OS in Legacy instead of UEFI and where i think thats the issue boot changing and reinstallation is the cause of your problem. If do you have a backup then if you do restore to back OEM then all recovery along all Pre Installed things from HP will come back. I did same i have restore my backup and all things are back to routine. Best of luck!

Hi

Ideas?    Yes.

Not simple to implement, but -   https://gparted.org/

either as a standalone DVD/USB or as an integral part of Knoppix or Lubuntu.

GParted is a free partition editor for graphically managing your disk partitions.

With GParted you can resize, copy, and move partitions without data loss, enabling you to:

• Grow or shrink your C: drive
• Create space for new operating systems
• Attempt data rescue from lost partitions

Now it is possible that the lost / missing partitions are because of switching Secure Boot/Legacy Boot.

The Hard Disk effectively dis-appears.

For a Windows Based recovery I suggest Piriform Recuva.  The Activation key can be found usually by

KeyFinderInstaller, or a very complex way using Knoppix or Lubuntu.

So what next?

https://gparted.org/download.php

https://lubuntu.net/downloads/

So look in the BIOS and see what is selected, and then one step at a time we try to rebuild your HDD.

Secure Boot is the usual for W10.

If in doubt please ask.

This recovery F11 want to fix

I know, and I am posting things to try and help.

So is there a hard drive? Is it set to Legacy or Secure boot in the BIOS?
