why r-partition not visible in filemanager or gparted

[harry88]

Hello forum

tried to install Ventoy with "reserve disk space" .  

- after installing Ventoy with the -r option under Linux, I can't find this new partition and gparted does not report/see this partiton as well

- same thing under Windows (under Windows I dedicated 16GB as reserve disk space) and this is reflected in the
  Windows Filemanager (41,6GB free (of 64GB) )


Question:
Why I can't see the Reserve partiton?


Thank's a lot for any feedback!

Ventoy only create 2 partitions when install.
The free space is just free space, there is no partition created on the free space.
If you want you need to create a partition on the free space by yourself.
In Windows disk manager you just see the unallocted free space as follows but it is not a partition.
