Hello,

I've been using Windows for a good 10 or 11 years now. I'm going Linux and making Windows history.

About a month ago, I was messing around with partitions, and played with a few OS. I don't know what I did, but I can't extend my main drive(which I plan to install Linux to). The extend option in the drop down menu is grayed out.

Solution
1. Full defrag
2. You can generally only extend to the right. You need to move the partitions around.

If you're going 100% Linux, just wipe the entire drive during the Linux install.


I'll just do that. Thanks.
