Hi Ibrahim, I knew all that when I chose the standard option, however I just wanted it working again so I don't really care that I have to remove all the crap from the machine afterwards. And about the recovery, it has not prompted me, I canceled the recovery part of the instalation as I don't have a partition for it.
