| I'm a mess. Not sure if you read my posts (that are now deleted), Ivo edited his comment but he initially had two fixes up, both with similar names. The point is, I have already downloaded and applied Ribbon Disabler. I still have the extra back, forward, up buttons. Not a HUGE deal. But if anyone c... |

| Very well said. It was long, it was arduous. It's still not over. I need to format my C and D after ward, and correct their boot records. But I think Windows installation will do that. |

| actually, as I said, I'm more concerned about the D drive, just like in Gparted, it doesn't show a partition. So it's unallocated. How do I reclaim the partition without damaging the data? |

| It sounds like your partition table ended up corrupt? My only suggestion would be to find a Linux LiveCD or DOS diskette; something that can run testdisk and see if you can rewrite your partition table. If not, you can go warez and get hiren's bootcd. It should have some software in it that will le... |

I made the testdisk USB. Made it with Rufus. It formatted, applied the iso I downloaded from Boot Med. It doesn't auto run like the windows 10 one does.
Now what? Can I run it from the command prompt? |
