Hello, I installed Windows Technical Preview, and I can see that I still have this System Reserved thing on my computer since I had Windows 7 a couple years ago. How can I remove it?

1. The System Reserved should NOT have a drive letter.

2. 7, 8, and 10 all use the System Reserved partition.

3. How did you install? Wipe everything associated with the old OS? Or.....?


Bottom line - I wouldn't try to delete it. You might screw it up completely.

I ran the setup.exe and chose the full clean wipe option.

From my above, #1 & 2 still apply.
Win 10 still needs that system reserved.

Go into your Disk Management, and see if there are 2 System Reserved Partitions.
Also, what happens when you boot? Does it ask which OS (7 or 10)? If not...leave it.

I went to the Disk Management and hid the System Reserved. My computer boots up normally, I don't get any kind of error message.

Hide it, fine.
Delete it, bad juju.

Good luck.
