If something is writing to your Recovery drive then the most likely culprit is Windows Backup.

Type Backup in Start rb: button Search Box, click on Backup and Restore. Turn off Windows Backup.

If this is the Recovery partition chances are it will no longer run any longer. If you'll post back a screenshot of the contents of the partition, using the Snipping Tool in Start Menu, we can help you clean it out so it will run if needed.

If its a partition intended for backup then you might want to save the backup, periodically run it manually, or change the settings so it backs up less often.

just says D recovery and i cannot view the files or see anything inside and I am afraid to change the permissions also though it has a something on it called dial up? I was able to view that from the properties but not view solid files just like the partition D for the control of it I am a little green on this stuff
thanks for the reply

That's likely the Recovery partition which is booted to restore your PC to factory condition. I told you how to view the files so we can help you delete the ones which are not supposed to be there.

I am brave enough to let you do a remote control if you want to attempt to see wtf is going on? I will screw up a screen shot sounds to complicated!

A screenshot is very easy in w7 with the Snipping tool. Drag the rectangle around what you need to capture the in Files/Save As, give it a name and pick Desktop as the save location. It won't mess up anything.

Here's how to do a proper Disk Management snip. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorial...nt-post-screen-capture-image.html#post2261610

Did you check if Windows Backup is turned on and writing to the Recovery partition? I asked you about that a day ago and you have still not responded.

I gave you very easy steps to check this if you'd even try. Why would you ask for help and then just ignore steps which I type out for you?

Please report back on the steps we give you or ask more questions to learn how to complete them. Don't just ignore them.

"Goerge Carlin where are You"

I downloaded active disk editor now tel me how to post a screen image of my 17 full gigs of recovery data ?
This might be interesting to see inside a little i will past it here in the active editor 2.1 free version. There are two errors in the kernel platform it has two of the very same errors listed in yellow says 8:47:31 am: Kernel platform code: 18 name\\?\volume 9fe299b3-b366-11e2-8719-9928776e3eba} ; position 0 block size 0; system error 5. there are two of those the second one is the same only its listed as code 10: not 18 so how do i take a screen shot now!
This is truly all bullshit right?

 

[gregrocker]

I have no idea what that's about, but am still waiting to hear if Windows Backup was turned on, and see and screenshot of the files in your Recovery partition. I've explained how to do these things.
