This works sometimes to boot into Recovery and do a Factory restore.
1.Right-click on "Computer" icon and select manage.
2.This will launch the Microsoft Management Console.
3.On the left side of the MMC, click on "Disk Management" and it will show you all of the partitions.
4.Right-click on the "HP Recovery" partition and select "Mark as Active Partition."
5.When the warning prompt appears, select "Yes" - Reboot and it will automatically boot into the Recovery Manager (without pressing F11).

Hi Team,
When I am right clicking on my recovery partition on Disk Management, I am not finding any option for Mark as Active partition. There is one option for Reactiving the Partition but this is grayed out.
Can you please help me here?
Thanks,
Chandan
