Title: Lenovo OneKey and recovery partition.
Post by: CharlieKasper on August 08, 2015, 10:51:38 pm
Hi, I am in the process of upgrading to Windows 10 so I have started looking for Lenovo certified drivers for my laptop. Unlike for previous Windows versions, one key recovery software doesn't exist for Windows 10 (and in fact, 8.1 and 7 too) in the drivers page anymore.

What do I do about it?

I heard something about recovery partitions being no more needed in Windows 10 since it will clean install itself from the settings (hence the absence of OneKey Recovery software?). If that is true, do I still need the 15 GB OEM reserved partition (that has OEM Windows 8.1)? If not, how do I format that 15 GB and the other two (combined 1 GB) partitions and use them for my files?

You can only format any partition during installation, you are about to upgrade to Windows 10, which I am certainly sure will not give you any options for your current partitions. (All due it's an upgrade done while Operating System is running, and not installation loaded prior to OS running.)

As for One Key Recovery, I assume that Lenovo will release drivers soon enough. By looking around I saw a topic at Micro$oft that people could leave feedback for compatibility, so far 3/9 could make Windows 8.0 Version of One Key Recovery to work on Windows 10.
