How do I delete recovery partition?

[Noon6]

Hi. I've tried to delete a 15gb recovery partition on my D drive using disk manager but the only option I get after right clicking is "help".

I used disk part to delete the partition but I got an error saying "The arguments specified for this command are not valid".

On my D drive I have 3 Partition. Partition 1 is 600 mb recovery Partition, Partition 2 is 300 mb EFI system partition, Partition 5 is 15 gb recovery partition.

I'm trying to delete is because I don't think it is useful for my drive because I have an ssd which the os are installed. I only use my D drive for games, music and videos.

Please help. Thank you in advance.

You'll need to use diskpart to kill off that partition.

"The arguments specified for this command are not valid" just means you didn't do it correctly.
