    My data partition is Active?


    When I restored my Image to a clean partition (A clean drive with 2 partitions) I ended up with Recycle.Bin, Boot, System Volume Information, and bootmgr on my Data drive. I'm not sure what to do about this?

    Post a picture of Disk Management.

    The tools I'd look at would be Diskpart and Partition Wizard, but show us the pic first.

    Guys, you are wasting your time with this OP. He should have done what he was told in this thread: Can't delete my data partition or format it

    Tried to figure for a long time but I failed. What does an OP stand for? The word keeps cropping up frequently and I guess I understand in context what it means.

    If your computer is working fine, as it seems, then please leave it alone and let it do its job for at least a fortnight before tinkering any further.

    OP means, quite simply, original poster.

    My data partition is Active?-disk-management.png

    Can I just cut and paste these hidden system files from my Data partition to the C drive?
