hi,
I did not make this drive but it came out of nowhere and contains system files. I have enabled it to see hidden files but still can't be seen.
if deleting this system drive will make Windows 11 unstable/crash/not work properly.
please view the following video for an explanation.

That drive is only 838 MB. Maybe your recovery partition was somehow assigned a drive letter and now shows up in File Explorer.
Please post a screenshot of Disk Management and make sure the top columns are spread out enough to read the information.

Hide that partition because that is Recover Partition.

You can hide the partition by removing drive letter.

i used a popular software to merge the 800(something) mb partition to the c drive.and I successfully merged them.
the 100 MB partition was created by Windows 11 during installation.
i tried to merge it as well but couldn't are there ways to merge it and have it any benefits?
