    Hi all,

    I just got a brand new Lenovo Y550 with OneKey Recovery system 7.0. Here is how my 320 GB is partitioned: C: 255GB, D:30GB. After my initial setup, I followed Lenovo advice to create the first backup using the default HIDDEN directory on drive D:\Lenovo\OneKey App\OneKey Recovery\backup.wsi (something like this although I can't remember exactly the path) and it uses 13GB out of my 30GB D: drive. Later one after installed many more applications, I tried to make another backup but D: drive didn't have enough spaces so I had to use an external drive instead. Since I don't need my first backup from hidden directory D:\Lenovo\OneKey App\OneKey Recovery\backup.wsi anymore, I'd like to delete this file and free up some spaces. How do I do it? I tried to enable Windows' hidden files/directories etc but can't seem to delete this file. Can someone know how to do it and help please?

    Thanks!

    just open up my documents or something like that and in the top bar type or copy and paste that directory path and the files will be right there for you to erase
