Created image on 250 g drive and restored to 512 g .Process works fine but when I view the larger drive (windows 10) I see 2 partitions ,1 active and 1 not and 1 small recovery partition . I understand why this happened but wanted to use the full size of destination drive (1 partition) I was able to do this but I had first had to delete the small recovery partition (not the windows small healthy partition ) using the diskpart command and then resize
The OS boots fine. Is there a way to prevent the recovery partition from being created (in setup menu prior to imaging) not sure what it is for. and I could save a few steps.
Since you have done that, you can use GParted live to resize that:

Next time you can try to enter expert mode, and choose the option "-k1".
