So, If i shrunk my linux partition by 300GB, and it's 400 ... will this space go to Windows? or just be blank?

c-drive won't extend.. 

[deegeekay]

@HarmFlo: I had the same problem. I had created a Temp drive and as I wasn't planning on usingit I was able to delete and this allowed me to extend the C drive as the option was no longer 'greyed out'. You can then repartion from there again if you so wished.

[manimcool5]

extend volume is greyed out

[francismori7]

I have 250gb diskspace yet it allows me to use only 16.62 gb D:

[tdflynn8]

@francismori7 I'm having the same problem!!! (I'm hoping that if they respond then I'll get advice too)

[formanite373]

Well i have tried it, i shrink my c drive with 100 GB and created as volume E:, when i again shrink the C: Drive with 113 GB and try to create it as a new volume, it gives an error at the end " You cannot create a new volume in this unallocated space because the disk already contains the maximum number of partitions". Please Help me with this.

[heyjhay13]

how about adding a partition to an existing drive can i do that also in disk management?what i mean is i want to transfer a free space on my C drive to my D drive.

[Sweetdrm]

Restart your computer after you finished the steps on the video. Than the changes will show up.

[antorip00]

thanks buddy.. help me very much..

[stalingbg]

How long did that take to resize?

[youknowita]

@stalingbg just a little time,Partition manager wizard is really a good thing, MiniTool partition manager wizard is a good choice for you. It is easy to use and it is efficient. Some editions are FREEEEE. Any of you who need it can have a try.

[MrBornpaki]

HELP,EXTEND PARTITION DIDN'T SHOW UP

[oddball163]

My C: Drive shrunk, but the unallocated space dosen't show up

[Aimar04101]

Guys, you are making things more complicated. I got an magic, MiniTool Partition Wizard, which is not only able to resize (including increasing and shrinking) active partition and data partition, but also system partition!!! ( resize system partition is not allowed). In addition, this program is totally free for personal users. MiniTool Partition Wizard Both text and video demonstrations are included at its official website.

[Michaelxy10000]

@Aimar04101 good choice

[TheMols14]

how do i expand the (:C) cuz my expand button is grey and cannot be clicked even though i removed some from my rescue disk(760 GB)?

[Aimar04101]

@TheMols14 i think this software could help you resize C:. MiniTool partition wizard. yean, free software just google it

[Aimar04101]

@TheMols14 sorry for being so late to reply your question.

i think you should first employ the "Move/Resize" function of Partition Wizard to free up an unallocated space between your C or D(probably) ( namely shrink the size of D). Then you will be able to click the EXPAND button when increasing partition C! hope this would be helpful

[luckylsh]

i dont have any extend volume to click for my c drive!!! so HOWWW????

[mkdfanful]

when i try to shrink a volume of 100 gb and i get this message ''the volume you have selected to shrink does not have a recognizable file system. shrinking this volume will erase any data...'' and i get the options yes or no help me out here :/

[rxoo7]

[FlowOne16]

Are they possible to just move over 240GB to the already partitioned D drive? for I have all my music and games where I do not want to take away any of the disks. Just move 240 GB of disk operating system to gaming and music disk.

How do you resize the "C" drive (the one with all the programs and Windows on it)?

[respectxtimes777]

@bosandjerossss i saw a comment from a tech in a different video saying you CANT extend de C partition because it allocates de OS... bummer=(

[samankurdy]

@respectxtimes777

You R right, the extend partition icon is inactive, so I can not extend my partition. Can anybody help how to activate the extend partition icon and then increase the size of my C drive.

[ProdigyM3DIA]

I knew this but i partitioned one hardrive to make a virtual one and want to shrink the real one and extend the "artificial" one as I wanted to create another partition to allow me to dual boot, but didn't allow enough memory... can any one help??

[respectxtimes777]

@ProdigyM3DIA maybe u have already done as many partitions the system allows u. And also remember that u need a free space to swap.

[ProdigyM3DIA]

I knew this but i partitioned one hardrive to make a virtual one and want to shrink the real one and extend the "artificial" one... can any one help??

[DRYJESUS]

why do you care how he wears his shirt?

[rafuch]

TEEECH UPDATEEE!!

[QnzWizKid]

doing partition makes the preformance of your HDD go down ..

[jon204]

thats why you need external usb drives

[sonoftherooshooter]

how to you figure?

[Mr937595]

do some word replacement and he sounds like a plastic surgeon LOL

[lestube001]

DONT TRY THIS AT HOME FOLKS

[BlakByte]

why

[AmH032uTuBe]

@lestube001, what, partitioning is fine (except once, read on), never had a problem, I tried on purpose once on the utility in the iso when you burn Ubuntu to a disc, can't remember the partitioning name.

That screwed the HDD up.

I just use either the Vista/7 inbuilt one, or better (can't remember name, it's been a long time) some other software, older versions are free

I know I said partitioning is easy to do.

But I guess it's a matter of - "It's easy to get right, and easy to get wrong."

[tpclhk]
