This tutorial will show how to create your own custom recovery partition. When restoring Windows from this custom recovery partition, Windows is updated (as it was when image was captured), containing all pre-installed software, user accounts and user data, device drivers, custom settings like themes and so on. I setup a pre-installed Windows or clean install it, update fully, install software as I prefer and create user accounts, and before starting to use Windows I capture the Windows image to a custom install.wim file and use it in setting up my own custom "factory recovery" partition. I prefer formatting OEM recovery partition and using that space to create my own instead.
This partition allows users to restore Windows 10 to it's original state, as it was when shipped from the factory.Īlthough a practical feature, restoring Windows to its original state from manufacturer recovery partition means just that, restoring PC to its original state with all OEM bloatware and all possible trial software, Windows being not updated and so on. Most computers today with OEM pre-installed Windows come with a so called Factory recovery partition.
