Accidentally Deleted Recovery Partition

Hi,

I have a Dell Inspiron N5110 laptop and recovery partition accidentally deleted.
Where can I find recovery partition files and how i can setup it?

I haven't very perfect English, sorry...

Can you help me?

Hi Bahadır,

Unfortunately there is no way of restoring the recovery partition once deleted.

Was the partition deleted while attempting a windows reinstall?

For alternatives, please share the operating system installed.

Keep me posted with the information. I will be glad to assist you further.

I installed Windows 7 64Bit operating system and installed all the drivers in the support department.
Computer is working fine. But can I re-create part of the recovery partition? I want to create part of the recovery partition...

Dell has been giving support in this matter?

Thank you for your reply...

Best Regards,
Bahadır ACAR

Probably not however you can create a system image using Acronis True Image 2014:

http://www.acronis.com/ 

Note you can use the free trial of this program to create a backup and a bootable USB/DVD. You can use this to restore to your backup i.e. your backup for clean install.

Note there are free variants if you have a Seagate or Western Digital internal or external hard drive. These don't have any trial but require Seagate or WD hardware respectively.

You CAN'T recreate the Recovery Partition ... you deleted it - it's gone.  Good news:  You don't need it.  If you want a "recovery partition", get an external hard drive and do a Windows Backup image to it .,. that would be much more useful than the factory image anyway.
