Re: Recovery Drive D full

The only files that should be on your recovery partition are image files to
return your PC back to factory conditions. You shouldn't be saving any files
to this partition.

If there is nothing else on the partition but the recovery files then leave
well alone. If, on the other hand, you have been saving your own files to
this partition, then I suggest you remove them to a DVD or your C: partition
Documents folder.
