Please note: the entire hard disk space can be partly partitioned and/or partly 
unallocated. If you delete a disk partition – whether intentionally or by mistake – 
its space becomes unallocated. You can create a new partition using unallocated 
space only. 
Acronis Recovery Expert checks to see if your hard disks contain unallocated 
space. If you have no unallocated space, then it makes no sense to search for 
deleted partitions. If you have unallocated space, it may have contained one or 
more partitions. Acronis Recovery Expert will search unallocated space 
thoroughly – either automatically or manually. 
5.1 Automatic 
Recovery 
You can recover deleted partitions automatically or manually. To do so, set the 
switch to the necessary position in the Recovery mode window. 
Let us describe automatic partition recovery first. Set the switch to Automatic
 
Selecting Automatic recovery mode 
In the next Searching for Deleted Partitions window, Acronis Recovery Expert 
searches for all deleted partitions. The search progress is shown in the lower part 
of the window.
