If possible, remove the disk from the exclusion list and then retry the recovery. 2) A USB disk may have been assigned as a system disk. a. Detach all USB disks from the computer. b. Reboot into Windows Recovery Environment (Win RE), then reattach USB disks and retry the recovery. 3) An invalid disk may have been assigned as system disk. a.
