    Windows 11 HDD Partitioning


    I recently installed Windows 11 Pro as a clean install. The machine I installed it on had Windows 10 Pro 64 bit. After installing Windows 11 I connected a 4TB and 6TB drive that were used on the same machine. They partitioned themselves similar to the 32 bit issue with drives over 2TB. They were already in GPT format. Now it shows them as 2 partitions and one is showing that it's a GPT protective partition. Why would this happen when the drives were already in GPT format? I don't understand why this would even happen. How can I recover data on these drives? I appreciate any help on this.

    :)
