    @Eaglepi, you have installed as UEFI-GPT as I see a EFI partition on drive 0.

    Some people complained that WU did an upgrade to Win 11 without asking. If you want to stay with Win 10, there are some simple tricks to block the upgrade (like disabling Secure Boot on BIOS).

    To find out if the other drives are MBR or GPT, open Disk Manager View - Top - List Disk

    View - Top - List Disk

    You can find out using Diskpart on a CMD window. If the GPT column has a * the drive is GPT
    Diskpart
    List disk

    Disk 4 could also be GPT. No reasons to change as it would work the same.

    Why did you choose a SATA SSD drive as the main drive (OS drive) instead a M.2 PCIe NVMe drive?
    A M.2 PCIe NVMe drive can be many times faster (up to 20) than a SATA SSD.

    M.2 2280 250GB PCIe 4.0 x4

    A quick question please @Megahertz,

    Is your Font for Disk Management and CMD Prompt an individual change for each or a system wide applied change ?

    Unknown answer.
    Paul, maybe it is related to the fact that I still use Win 7.
