What is the "recovery partition"?
I did a clean install of Windows 7 Professional on a drive that originally contained Windows Vista Home Premium. This was over two months ago, and the Windows 7 installation seems to be working fine. But about 10 GB of space on the C: drive is taken up by a "recovery partition." My sense is that this was created in case I want to recover my Vista installation, in which case it's of no more use to me after thoroughly testing Windows 7. But is this what the recovery partition is, and if so how do I get rid of it to reclaim the disk space?
