I recently installed an M.2 drive and tried to install Windows 10. After adjusting settings, it mentioned I couldn't upgrade to Win11 due to unsupported Secure Boot. I checked the disk partitions and found it was split into four sections. I converted it to GPT successfully, but when I revisited the partitions, it appeared divided again. Can I fix this issue or is it acceptable as-is?

They are generated during the Windows setup. When attempting a clean install and installing 11, remove all existing files and choose the remaining Unallocated Space before proceeding.
