I'm trying to create a dual-boot setup on my Windows 11 machine. I attempted to shrink my C: drive 928GB using Disk Management, but I can’t reduce it more than 47GB, even though I have 500G free space available.Furthermore, I searched online and found that immovable files can prevent shrinking.

Dual Boot .

Dual Boot . . . My computer, is a laptop. Running, Windows 10. I tried,

Windows 11. But, I preferred. Good old, Windows 10!

But I would still, like to be able to use. Both, on one hard drive? These are the instructions I am following: How to dual boot Windows 10 and Windows 11 - Digital Citizen This is a screenshot, of my hard drive. And the window, that opened up. When I clicked on, shrink.

What amount do I enter, in megabytes. To shrink the volume, 465 GB. Making two, equal partitions? I hope this is not, too confusing? Thank you, for reading. Dana

Step Two . . . The above text is a reference to where this started. I did shrink, my C: drive. To almost two, even partitions. The attached picture, shows the result.







When you look at the picture, of the C: drive. You've got healthy boot. All kinds, of things. When you look, at the. Unallocated space. You have, to pick. New Simple, New Spanned, New Striped, Volume? Wow! I hope there's, a document. That shows me what, to do next? Remember. This is step two, in setting up for a dual boot. Thanks, for reading . . .
