Product: Pavilion g6 1205ax
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

So recently my HP Pavilion g6 1205ax recovery broke

I click f11 but it just continues to boot to windows 10

I had windows 7 but then when i tried to open the recovery drive it said this drive is corrupted would you like to format it...

@Evaldas123 

What you apparently do not know is that Upgrading a Win7 PC to Win10 corrupts the recovery drive -- so that option is no longer available after the upgrade.  So, if you were planning to use it to restore Win7, that is no longer going to work.
