Canceling Partition Resize Operation

[nokturrduk84]

I started resizing my 4TB HDD because I had 128mb unallocated space & now it says huge amount of time for wait this operation. It's doing so slow... Stupid me, if I'd knew it would take such a long time, I wouldn't do it. Now it doesn't even have a cancel button & I'm thinking to end the operation from task manager or manually restart PC, but I wanna know if I risk to lose data on my 4TB HDD or even harm it?

Yes, cancelling this midstream may kill ALL data on that drive/partition.
Let it run.

128MB out of 4TB = 0.000032% space.
Basically, the size of a toothpick compared to a whole house.

Pfff.... I'm bad in math, can you tell me aprox how much time will it take to complete? I think 1% needs 15 or 20 minutes.

How much time? Completely unknown.

You have 2 choices:
1. Let it run and it probably won't hose up your data.
2. Cancel it, and have a much higher probability of hosing up your data.

Your choice.
