So I recently got an m.2 and wanted to download windows 10 on it. I did that ans when I went to settings it wrote that I can't upgrade to win11 because Secure boot is unsupported. So I checked in the disk partitions menu and I saw that the disk was mbr. I then proceeded to convert it to gpt and All went well but when I went back again at the disk partitions I saw that it was seperated in 4 partitions. Can I do something about it, is it ok to leave it like that?

They’re created automatically with the Windows installation process. If you’re trying to wipe the drive and install 11, delete all of them during the install process and select the single Unallocated Space that’s left and hit next.

Perfectly normal, don't touch those if you want a functional Windows OS.
