Looks like a restore partition. They hide those so they do not show up in Windows.

Can I just leave it be and not mess with it?

Hello:


if your system is a manufactured PC like a dell, gateway compaq etc

then the partition in question is as stated above, its a hidden restoration partition and its not suppose to be for casual access, only your system restore disks can access this partition if you wanted to reinstall the OS and all the programs that can new on the machine.

By the way; should you ever deciede to "use" the restoration CD someday, please keep in your mind that you will lose all data on your drives currently when the restoration is completed, the computer will be in the same condition as the day you opened the shipping box and connected the machine for use.

so in summary, disregard the fact the ??? is there if you own a manufactured PC.
