Question Expand partition on 1 disk with many drive partitions

[ozrock]

Hi.

I have a HP dv6 laptop with 1 ssd 1tb disk with latest Win 10 Home.

One partition C: has os and needs more space and another partition E: has unallocated space to pull from.

I have Partition Wizard free but cant' seem to get the space from drive E to Drive C: which in a way makes sense.

How can I do this please?

1. Shrink G: by 50GB
2. Create a new partition in free space (drive letter H: )
3. Move all data from G: to H:
4. Delete partition G:
5. Change drive letter for partition H: to G:
6. Use partition wizard to extend C: to free space in extended partition next to it.

Disk Management will not normally be able to extend primary partition to free space in extended partition.

You may be tempted to use move partition option to arrange partitions on your drive.
I'd strongly advise against that.
Or have full backup of data you're moving around before doing it.

Worked like a charm. Thanks again.
