Disk management shows one less partition than diskpart and Macrium?

It is the Microsoft Reserved Partition - Microsoft Reserved Partition - Wikipedia
It has been there for a long time.
The disk management is a Windows tool.
It is not designed to display all partitions.
The information that it displays can be incorrect.
For example:
Overview of Disk Management | Microsoft DocsCode:Although Disk Management might show the EFI system partition and the recovery partition as 100% free, it's lying. These partitions are generally pretty full with really important files your PC needs to operate properly. It's best to just leave them alone to do their jobs starting your PC and helping you recover from problems.
