Q: The startup disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition
I've install with Bootcamp Windows 8 then upgrade to Windows 8.1 and then upgrade to Windows 10.
When I want to relaunch the Bootcamp I've the error message : "The startup disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition".
According do this page, this is due to Windows recovery partitions added during the migration from 8 to 8.1 and 8.1 to 10.
