  1. Problem in Special folders after resizing Local Disk C the one with the OS


    I have a 1TB Drive. In it, I have two main partitions i.e. those, where a normal user can save data, which are Local Disk C and Local Disk D.

    Earlier, Local Disk C was 150GB, Local Disk D was 730GB and I somehow HAD 50.97GB unallocated space on the drive. Since the usable space in Local Disk C was getting scarce, I wanted to extend it and add 29.99GB from the unallocated space to it to make it with capacity of 179.99GB.

    Now, the Windows Disk Management didn't allow me to extend C Drive because the unallocated space was not exactly next to it, so I used MiniTool Partition Wizard. The Minitool Partition software allowed me to extend it but prompted me to restart and execute the operation just after the restart and before logging into windows because maybe Local Disk C was in use by the OS, and it was maybe necessary.

    The operation of extend the Local Disk C was successful but after logging in to Windows, the Sync Programs I was using "MEGASync" and Google's Drive Sync, that were syncing the special folders wiz. User's Documents, Downloads folder, Pictures, Video, Music, etc, which are usually located at C:\Users\{USER_NAME}\ broke and notified that the special folders were not found. Although I could easily access these Special folders. To me, everything seems fine, but both of these syncing programs broke the same way and I had to fix them by relocating the special folders. Till now, only these two Sync programs got broken.

    So, my questions are:

    1. Why did these two programs might have broken? The special folders' location seems the same to me, what might have gone wrong?

    2. And what other problems I might have to face now for extending my Local Disk C? Is there any way to fix it?

    :)

  2. Recovering Local Disk

    Thank you for your quick response.

    It could be a compatibility issue with the latest update and your local disk. We suggest updating your disk driver. Follow these steps:

    • On the Start, type Device Manager.
    • Locate and select Disk drives.
    • Right-click on your disk drive, select Properties.
    • Go to the Driver tab and choose Update Driver.
    • Once done, click OK.

    Update us with the outcome so we can provide further assistance.

    Problem in Special folders after resizing Local Disk C the one with the OS

    Is Windows (CProblem in Special folders after resizing Local Disk C the one with the OS :) the same as Local Disk (CProblem in Special folders after resizing Local Disk C the one with the OS :)?

    Yes Windows C: is the same as Local Disk C:

    When you open file explorer and click on the C drive you will see a Windows folder.

    That is the folder that contains your Windows files and is normally installed on the C drive.

    Let me know if you have any further questions.
