If you install Windows 10 on a big disk, then it will allocate more space for these partitions. It is usually formatted as NTFS and holds all the files.
If you delete or move it, Windows 10 will not boot.
Accessed by the UEFI firmware when a computer is powered up, it stores UEFI applications and the files these applications need to run, including operating system kernels. EFI System partition, often abbreviated as ESP, is a data storage device partition that is used in computers adhering to the UEFI specification.They don't resolve my issue, as they don't address the WINRE and RECOVERY partitions on a Windows 10 system specifically. NOTE: I've read other questions regarding hard drives with four primary partitions already created. What exactly are the purposes of these two partitions? Is this special menu reliant on either the WINRE or RECOVERY partitions? Is the computer in fact booting into one of these partitions to display this menu? I know that holding Shift while clicking the Restart button will restart your computer into a special menu where you can change certain settings or boot from removable media ( source, step 4 in the article). Does this drive fully replace the functionality of either the WINRE or RECOVERY partitions? If so, can I safely remove either partition without messing up my Windows 10 installation in any way (including boot process), voiding any warranties, or preventing myself from restoring Windows 10 in the future? I created a recovery USB drive using the HP Recovery Media Creation tool desktop app. I'll shrink the Windows partition to create space. Thus, I must remove a partition to allow for an extended partition, in which I can place my logical partitions for Linux. However, my hard drive comes with four Primary partitions already created, as seen here in gParted:
I'm attempting to install Ubuntu Linux alongside Windows 10 in a dual-boot configuration.
