How do I reduce the volume of the recovery partition?
Your built-in flash memory storage contains the recovery partition where data for the system recovery is stored. To reduce
the volume of the recovery partition, follow these steps:
1
Insert the recovery disc into an external optical disc drive (not supplied) while your computer is on, turn off the computer,
and then turn it on once again.
2
Press the F11 key when the VAIO logo appears during the startup process.
The System Recovery Options window appears.
!
Use the recovery disc you created upon delivery of your computer.
3
Select your keyboard layout from the drop-down list and click Next.
4
Select your operating system and click Next.
5
Click VAIO Recovery Center.
The VAIO Recovery Center window appears.
6
Click Restore Complete System and Start.
7
Select Skip and click Next.
You will be prompted to select whether or not to keep the VAIO Value-added contents.
8

The above procedure involves system recovery. Note that the applications and data you added on the built-in flash memory storage before reducing
the volume of the recovery partition will all be lost.
