Hi,

What you are seeing is the correct setting - system protection should not be turned on for the Recovery D partition.

Thank you for this information because I was wondering the same thing. 

So now that Windows 10 is out and I decide to do the free upgrade, will I loose my Microsoft Office 2007?  I don't have the discs because I bought this computer used.  Is there a way to save it on a 32 GB flash drive to reinstall after upgrade?  Or will it still be there after doing the upgrade?

I need to know why I constantly receive a message that my system D is full and when I look it up under system it says that drive C is on and D is off?
