Without deleting my partitions*

#

Or a way I can use the unallocated space for windows without having to merge the two drive

#

I guess you can just expand either one of the two adjacent partitions into that space.

#

Wym?

twin wasp Feb 22, 2025, 11:12 AM

#

Right click on a partition, go with the extend option.

#

You said you wanted to use the unallocated space without merging them right?

steep kindle Feb 22, 2025, 11:13 AM

#

Yh as the last option

#

Also I can't extend it's in grey

twin wasp Feb 22, 2025, 11:14 AM

#

Yeah figures. I thought those black were unallocated.

#

What are those partitions for anyway?

steep kindle Feb 22, 2025, 11:14 AM

#

Wait a sec

twin wasp Feb 22, 2025, 11:14 AM

#

Doesn't seem to me that you have an unallocated one to begin with.

steep kindle Feb 22, 2025, 11:16 AM

#

Yep

twin wasp Feb 22, 2025, 11:17 AM

#

Can you perhaps give a much better shot of your Drive Management view? I can't see everything here.

#

twin wasp Feb 22, 2025, 11:24 AM

#

Wait... does that mean your unallocated space is at the end of the partition table?

steep kindle Feb 22, 2025, 11:25 AM

#

It's the one with 100gb

#

It's the new volume

#

D

twin wasp Feb 22, 2025, 11:25 AM

#

Oh, I see now. Shouldn't that be fine?

steep kindle Feb 22, 2025, 11:25 AM

#

Wym

twin wasp Feb 22, 2025, 11:26 AM

#

Do you perhaps mean to say that you want to merge D to some other partition?

steep kindle Feb 22, 2025, 11:26 AM

#

Yes to C

#

The main partition

#

Do u know what should I do?

twin wasp Feb 22, 2025, 11:27 AM

#

I'm not sure. As far as I can remember that's not readily available.

steep kindle Feb 22, 2025, 11:28 AM

#

Oh

twin wasp Feb 22, 2025, 11:28 AM

#

Most tools that are also capable of doing such are paid

steep kindle Feb 22, 2025, 11:28 AM

#

Oh is there no free way to do it?

#

I tried easus partition master but it wasn't free

twin wasp Feb 22, 2025, 11:29 AM

#

steep kindle Oh is there no free way to do it?

I think so. Microsoft support forums also do tell me the same...

steep kindle Feb 22, 2025, 11:29 AM

#

So I need to pay

#

it's fine thx

#

I found how to use the new volume

#

Now every thing I'll download will go to the new volume

twin wasp Feb 22, 2025, 11:34 AM
