Win 10 creates 4 partitions

[grarcher]

Does anyone know why win 10 new install creates 4 partitions on a 500Gb Hdd drive.
All I did was select the full disc as unallocated to install win 10 and ended up with 4.
one small partition at either end of the partition table and two in the middle of 465 Gb and 500MB ?
I would have thought you get one.

They are system reserved partitions, used for OS recovery etc. Perfectly normal.

Uefi installation mode creates 4 partitions, 1st one is efi partition which installs the boot filles and the others are for sotring encripting keys and stuff like that. Yes it is normal.
