Windows 10: Is it normal to have small unallocated space in the HD when installing Windows 11

I was recently hacked and had to wipe all of my computers and reinstalled windows 11. One thing I noticed there is a small about 24-333 KB of "UNALLOCATED SPACE" besides the System, MSR reserved, Primary and Recovery partitions.I've installed reinstalled windows 11 many times before, I don't remember seeing something like this. I checked all of my computers in the house, and they all have the same issue.Is this common? or the hacker left something in these drives that I can't wipe it, even after I formatted the C drives many times and it kept coming back.Thanks!SD

Unallocated Space to C Drive

Hi Travis,

It appears that a disk partition was created but was never assigned its allocation. Assuming there are no files stored in the unallocated partition, perform these steps to combine it with your C: drive:

• In Disk Management, right-click on (C which appears next to the
  Unallocated partition.
  
• Select Extend.

Let us know if you're able to combine the spaces after following the steps above.

Regards.
