And we're going to talk about how to delete and create EFI system partition on Windows 11/10, and will present you the solution to recover lost data from EFI system partition. Time to restart and check nothings borked.Ħ) Restart, pressing f8 and choose repair computer.ħ) check you can get in the console and see all the option after logging into administrator - if NOT, restart as normal and replace the original 'pagefile.sys' off the desktop, this won't work for you, carry on with 8.Ĩ) restart the PC normally, load up disk manager and right click on the System Reserved partition and remove the drive letter.In this post, you'll learn "what is EFI system partition".
My current workaround is to go into the advanced backup manager and run a backup of the C:\ only, with no system state, but I feel very vulnerable without a good recent system state backup.Ī reply to an old thread, but I found an easier answer to this, but only if stage 3 applies.ġ) load up disk manager and right click on the System Reserved partition and give it a drive letterĢ) browse the drive with hidden AND system files visibleģ) you might see a 'pagefile.sys' of around 32mb in there, if so, move this to the desktop, if not, this won't work for you, roll back by loading up disk manager and right click on the System Reserved partition to remove the letterĤ) right click and create a new blank text file on the root of the System Reserved partition I don't want to have to fork out £100-£200 for a 3rd party partitioner unless it becomes absolutely necessary, and the way the server is running at the moment, I can't really afford to shut it down to use GParted. I then tried ending the VSS service while I moved the shadow copy location, but it auto restarts within seconds.ĭiskpart and Windows Drive Manager console snap-in, as with all version of Windows, will not extend the system reserved partition, as the C:\ is in the way, and it will not move the C:\. I then tried deleting the copy location for that partition, intending to remake it instantly, but powershell tells me it cannot do that as VSS is in use. I have tried moving the shadow copy location for that partition to the system drive, but powershell tells me it cannot set 2 locations for the same partition.
This is stopping VSS from running on that drive, and therefore SBS will not backup. Our Server's system partition is currently reading as 0% free.
