Windows 10: Active Partitions After Reformating

Hello, just reformated my windows 10 and one of my extra hard drives has become the Active drive and my ssd with the os isnt active. As of right now its booting up with no issues but i was curious if i need to change this or can i leave it be.



Here are the current drives.

Windows 10 and bit locker

I did all that you suggested and kept running into bit locker. As far as I know I never downloaded it or even activated it. I finally got past past it by deleting the partition windows 10 was installed in and reformating. Once I did that, I was able
to reinstall windows 10

"Active" is a term used by MBR partitioning schemes to indicate that a partition can be booted (but doesn't necessarily have to be).

Your boot drive is using GPT partitioning where there is no concept of an "active" partition. There is no problem with this configuration.

 

I once had a boot delay problem due the presence of an active partition a non-system disk drive. I just made that partition inactive using MiniTool Partition Wizard.
