Deleting "System Reserved" Partition

[EagleDesignInc]

Recently I switched my primary Windows 7 from a HDD to SSD.
I copied the windows files from the HDD to my new SSD using the Macrium Reflet

After the migration I format the old HDD and now I'm using as storage.

The problem now is that I have an assigned drive letter (F) to the System Reserved.
How do I delete that partition???

First, disconnect that drive and verify you can boot without it.

If it works, then reconnect it and go back into Disk Management and delete that partition.

I cannot delete using Disk Management. It says: This partition has an active paging file

But it also has a hidden System Reserved attached to the SSD...

1. Verify the system will boot without it.

2. Check your pagefile settings. Remove that from the list.

I removed the pagefile from the partition F and I successfully deleted. Thank you.
