  1. Can't find my Windows RE location or my Recovery Image Location, help me please.


    Hello Microsoft,The problem I'm having persisted when I was looking for a solution to my computer shutting down randomly without notice. I decided to bring it upon myself to fix the problem. After a long time of no progress I thought it might have been the 0x80070643 error. I found out it had something to do with my Windows Recovery Partition, I tried to resolve the situation by minimizing the storage. At last, whilst I was in the Command Prompt as admin, when I tried to reenable the reagentc. I was indicated that "REAGENTC.EXE: The Windows RE image was not found." After following another gu

    FS/FT Thread title location

    One more suggestion for B/S/T forum is the inclusion of a location made mandatory.
    I know it's already possible, but there's a limited choice in locations, and not many people use it, assuming that because they're in the US, they don't need to.
    The problem from this comes when they state quite clearly (although sometimes not clearly at all), they only ship to the US.
    Making location mandatory in the thread title would save a bit of time and hassle, and would make searching the forum easier.

    A suggestion for this: use the poster's location, if they've added a correct location, as the default.

    It's not like it's an issue of privacy, the poster will tell where they're from within the post in a round-about way.

    Not a big suggestion, but I thought I'd throw it in there.

    Windows has the wrong location for the recovery partition

    There are 4 partitions on the disk. After the EFI system partition the is a tiny Microsoft System Reserved (MSR) partition that will not show up in disk management. It will if you list partition in diskpart:

    Windows has the wrong location for the recovery partition

    I recently deleted the 2 OEM recovery partitions on the SSD on my laptop (now running version 1909), moved the Windows recovery partition to the end of the disk, and extended my C: drive to take up the newly vacated space. However, now the recovery partition is no longer labelled as a recovery partition in Disk Management. And when I type reagentc /info at the command prompt I get the following:
    Windows Recovery Environment (Windows RE) and system reset configurationInformation: Windows RE status: Enabled Windows RE location: \\?\GLOBALROOT\device\harddisk0\partition4\Recovery\WindowsRE Boot Configuration Data (BCD) identifier: 16f70634-8e2e-11e9-a0cb-8f79f51c2075 Recovery image location: Recovery image index: 0 Custom image location: Custom image index: 0REAGENTC.EXE: Operation Successful.

    It says that the recovery partition is partition 4, but I only have three partitions on the disk: the EFI system partition, C:, and the one at the end that ought to be the recovery partition, but seems no longer to be. How do I restore the recovery partition and get Windows to know its new location? I've got as far as extracting a winre.wim file from Windows install media, so I just need to know the steps after that.
