  1. C Drive Low on Space, D Drive Has Plenty - How to Reallocate Disk Space?


    Hi, I need help with disk partitioning. I have a 256GB laptop I bought about 4 years ago. Over time, my C drive has filled up, and now I only have about 5GB left, which is always in red. But my D drive still has around 190GB of free space. I want to move 30GB from D to C, but I'm facing some issues: 1. Using Windows Disk Management: - I shrank the D drive to create free space, but it didn’t fix the issue. - The 30GB unallocated space is next to D, yet Windows won’t let me merge it with C, and the "Extend Volume" option is grayed out. 2.

    Reallocating Disk Space

    I have 2TB of storage divided into two drives, C and D. I continue to get messages that I'm running out of disk space on drive C (currently allocated at 118 GB) so I tried to shrink drive D (with 1.4 TB of available space) in order to expand drive C. The
    process of shrinking drive D worked per MS guidance but when I went to reallocate the freed up space to expand drive C the "expand" command was shadowed out and I was unable to expand drive C. Am I missing something in the mechanics of reallocating space?
    Has anyone experienced a similar problem and, if so, can you share how this can be facilitated?
