Hello everyone,

I bought my laptop 3 month ago with windows 8 installed. After 1 week I updated to windows 8.1 but now I want to make a windows reset but I can't
Unable to reset your PC. A required drive partition is missing
this is the message that shows when i try to do the reset.

I also Create a Recovery USB Flash Drive but it still doesn't work.

I will appreciate your help.

There have been a few reports of the W8 to W8.1 upgrade destroying the Recovery Partition that is required to restore the Laptop to Factory settings or perform a Reset.
Ideally you should have created a Recovery Drive before upgrading, but, like many others, you're stuck with no means of creating one. The only recourse is to contact your laptop...

If your Windows is still running you can create a System Image Backup on a USB drive.
