Hi,
The parameter is incorrect usually occurs due to damaged file system, bad sectors and other various reasons.
You could run Check Disk utility to fix errors:
1.Open File Explorer.
2. Find the partition that needs fixing and right click it. Then, choose Properties.
3. In the pop-up mini window, click Check under Tools and click OK to continue.
4.Check “Automatically fix file system errors” and “Scan for and attempt recovery for bad sectors”. Then click Start button.
After performing disk check, you can try to format the partition again.
Best Regards,
Farena

The computer was booted using a Windows 10 iso.
In Windows RE command prompt diskpart was used to identify drive letters.
The chkdsk switches /b /v were used.
Each of the four partitions displayed windows found no problems.
Upon reboot to windows this administrative command prompt was ran:
format quick fs=ntfs
It again displayed:
0 percent completed
DiskPart has encountered an error: The parameter is incorrect.
Would it perform differently if format fs=ntfs were used instead?
What other troubleshooting options are there?

Hi,
You could format the disk totally using Diskpart.
This way will erase all data on the disk. You can retrieve data to another place if necessary.
1. Run Diskpart as administrator.
2. Type the following commands and hit Enter after each command.
list disk
select disk n
# n refers to the disk number of the disk that you need to clean
clean
create partition primary
format fs=ntfs quick
assign drive letter=f
exit
If Diskpart has encountered an error: The parameter is incorrect still appears, replace “clean” with “clean all”.

The other 3 partitions are working properly.
If the recovery partition is deleted using third party software (Mini Tool Partition Wizard) how can the recovery partition be recreated?
When performing an in place upgrade repair it will create a new recovery partition when it is done as an upgrade (1903 to 1909)
Would an in place upgrade repair with the same version (1909 > 1909) will it recreate a recovery partition?
If not, what other options are there to recreate the recovery partition?
Also if there is corruption of the recovery partition that is not fixed by chkdsk what other options are there for repair?
