Formatting of a disk with 2 old partitions

Hi Theo,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

Follow the below steps in order to create one partitions from two different partitions.

NOTE: Before performing the below steps, backup all the data which is in
H and G partitions as you will lose all the data in these partitions, which is not recoverable.

Step 1: Press the Windows key and the
R key from your keyboard and type Diskmgmt.msc and hit
Enter.

Step 2: Now, find your H and G partitions in
Disk Management > Right-click on the H partition > Click on
Delete Volume > Yes.

Step 3: Now, right-click on G partition >
Delete Volume > Yes.

Step 4: Once you have deleted both the partitions, a new
Unallocated partition will be created. Right-click on that unallocated partition >
New Simple Volume > Next > Next > Assign any letter for the new partition and click on
Next > Again, click on Next for the File System Format and click on
Finish.

Step 5: Then, go to File Explorer and Format the disk if it prompts and you will see one partition in File Explorer.

Hope it helps.
