My dell laptop has only one disk ( Disk 0 ) with 1862.89 GB of available space. It came with windows 10 version 1809.
At first it had one 650MB EFI System Partition, C drive, OEM partition in the same order as seen in Disk Management.
I made two more partitions ( D and E ) to separate my system files and keep them safe. Till this moment the OEM partition existed.
I recently updated my windows from 1809 to 1909 ( my current version of windows ) and also updated my BIOS from SupportAssist.
Today I noticed that the OEM partition was missing.
Disk manager now shows 3 new volumes ( which I never created ) :
Disk 0 partition 6 ( Recovery Partition ) 990 MB
Disk 0 partition 7 ( Recovery Partition ) 12.37GB
Disk 0 partition 8 ( Recovery Partition ) 1.14GB
of which all are empty.

- What should I do with them? Should I merge them to make a whole new big partition or leave them as it is?
- How can I get back my OEM partition? Is it even possible to recover it?
