    Cannot extend volume greyed out to merge unallocated disk space on same drive


    Hello,I am trying to merge 93.15 GB of unallocated disk space to my main windows drive, but the option to extend the volume is greyed out. I do not want to format both partitions as I have data on my main drive. How can I combine this unallocated disk space?Thank you

    Not Getting Able to Merge Drive with Unallocated Space!

    You should be able to right click on partition I:, in Disk Management, and select Extend volume... to add the unallocated space to partition I:. It should be as simple as that. You can't "merge" unallocated space with a partition, because unallocated space is not a partition. To "merge" 2 things those things need to be the same type of thing.

    And no, it's not illegal to copy files to another drive.
