    Anniversary Win 10 Clean Install off MCT


    I just did a clean install of 10 1607 & just a question if this normal

    I just used my 1 tb drive raw unformatted & select custom install means clean i assume it formatted & worked after install but when i go to disk management I do not see any hidden partitions was all in once partition on my other pc i see 100mb reserved & another one with (2334hH etc 450MB & the maiin rest of drive). Was this correct? & why didn't it make any hidden partitions? I had unchecked see hidden folders & all but not see anything also using disk defrag not display it.

    Post image from disk management.

    Only one partition (small msr partition) is hidden completely.
