About this tag
The tag pqservice refers to a hidden recovery partition found on Acer and Packard Bell computers, typically used for factory restore or system recovery. Users discuss whether deleting this partition will affect the ability to use recovery DVDs, and how to start the recovery process from the pqservice partition to reinstall Windows 7. The partition is often associated with the Acer Recovery Manager or Packard Bell restore discs. Troubleshooting includes issues like insufficient disk space errors when attempting to restore from discs, and questions about the partition's purpose after upgrading to a new operating system.
