    C:\Windows\RE_DRIVE takes up 33gb disk space


    I need to clear some disk space on my SSD, discovered that this folder takes up enormous chunk (33gb)

    Wondering if it would be alright to remove/relocate them without damaging the normal functioning of my laptop?

    :)

    Unallocated Space to C Drive

    Hi Travis,

    It appears that a disk partition was created but was never assigned its allocation. Assuming there are no files stored in the unallocated partition, perform these steps to combine it with your C: drive:

    • In Disk Management, right-click on (CC:\Windows\RE_DRIVE takes up 33gb disk space :) which appears next to the
      Unallocated partition.
    • Select Extend.

    Let us know if you're able to combine the spaces after following the steps above.

    Regards.

    C:\Windows\RE_DRIVE takes up 33gb disk space

    Windows 10 Disk Management - cannot extend C: drive to allocated space

    Hello, I followed all of the steps listed and it is still not working. The issue may be that the unallocated space is located on Disk 1 when my C: drive is on Disk 0 and I cannot seem to get them both on the same disk. Do you know if there is a solution
    for this?
