Im trying to restore my pc back to windows 8 But it is saying i have a missing partition Can anyone please help me with this?
Blomberg1985, When did you upgrade to Win10? What software are you using for the restore? Can you post a screenshot of Disk Management?
i upgraded soon as i got the notification that i could get windows 10 i was using update and security,recovery,reset this pc----on windows 10 settings hope the picture below is what you were wanting to see in disk management,this is all new to me
In some machines, during installation of Win10 , it creates new partitions that messed with the Win8 "partitions position structure" (forgot the right term, something to do with WIM), so the recovery partitions got a new "position" and can't be found by the recovery/reset features. if it this the case, there is nothing you can do. i got this kind of issue after dual-booting with Linux, when i wanted recover my Win8 system after deleting Linux , i couldn't.
yea it was 8.1,i wanted to reformat to what came on the computer then from there upgrade to windows 10 for a fresh new start
