Brand new MSI Stealth 16 Studio Laptop
Windows 11 Pro (fully updated).
No experience what so ever of Windows 11.
I have just installed Macrum Reflect and I was about to take a disk image when, inside Macrum, I saw that my 1 TB System drive came with 5 partitions.
The 5th partition, (NTFS), named BIOIS_RVY has a size of 26.46 GB is showing in the RED with 25.78 GB used.
I have run Disk Cleanup and Clean Up system tools but that made no difference.
Can someone tell me what this BIOIS_RVY partition is used for and, as it is almost full, will this impact on my system and what
can I do about it?
Many thanks

Hi Kenny,
My name is Igor, it's a pleasure for me to help others and I'll try to help you.
This partition contains a factory image of the system, it will be needed for factory resetting this PC. It has no influence on system operation, so do not worry about it.
Hi Igor
Thank you for your reply.
Thats great to know and has put my mind at rest.
Regards
Kenneth
