    Hello,

    I have an Acer Aspire E5 with Win 10.

    When I bought it, I just upgraded it to Win 10 CU.

    Then I wanted to create Acer recovery disk.

    In the "Acer Recovery" there is not such option.

    Then I went to BIOS, ALT+10 and istead of having an Acer Recovery environment I got Windows 10 uefi option.

    Then I went to see my partitions and they are:

    ESP 100MB
    Noname 16MB
    C: 930GB
    Recovery 1024MB with 500MB used

    I explore the Recovery partition and I see only WinRE with very updated files inside it.

    My questions:

    - Creators Update just destroyed the original Acer Recovery partition?

    - If so how is that possibile that the Acer Recovery partiton was only 1GB?
