  1. Extra Partitions after upgrading to Windows 11


    After upgrading to Windows 11, on my C drive there are 2 new partitions. This is a 1Tb, M.2 drive. I have:1 System Reserve, 100MB, PriNTFS2 C Partition, PriNTFS, 930GB3 “None” PriNTFS, 713MB4 “NoName”, Pri FAT32, 100MB.It’s 3 & 4 that are new. Why? I don’t remember any activity that would create a Fat 32 partition on this drive, which was a new drive , that I had transferred my Win10 install to via cloning several months ago before upgrading to 11. And can I delete them? Thanks.

    :)
