Hi,
I cloned my OS drive twice to move to a newer hardware. But the last time, it seems the "System Reserved" partition of the drive had some issues. 1st: it is not showing "System Reserved" on that partition. 2nd: the following attributes "system, Active, MBR" are not on it and shows only "Primary". My PC still boots up, but the whole purpose of this exercise was to get compatible to install Windows 11 and upgrade the OS drive with new and faster hardware. My questions are:
Is there anything I can do to fix it other than re-installing the OS?
Is this going to cause any issue with upgrade to Windows 11?
See below properties of this partition.

Givi,
Great.
What Volume Z said. You can merge that 101 MB unallocated space with the Recovery partition.
Open CMD as admin.
Run:
Open Disk Management and extend the Recovery partition. Once done, run the following:
Post the output for the last command.
Hi GIVISOLTANI,
I'm Ramesh here.
Please post a screenshot of the Disk Management window.
Windows 11 will require GPT disk instead of MBR. To convert a disk to GPT, follow the instructions in the article below.
MBR2GPT - Windows Deployment | Microsoft Learn:

It creates an EFI partition on the system drive.
Although the above process is not destructive, it's suggested to backup your data just in case something goes wrong.
Before starting, you may want to check if your system is compatible with Windows 11 using the freeware tool WhyNotWin11.
