Windows 10: Disk management: Unable to create a simple volume/extend other volumes with 'The size of...

Hi,I had dual booted my laptop with windows on disk 0 and ubuntu on disk 1. I recently removed ubuntu and deleted the partition I had created for it. Now, I am currently unable to extend my other volumes or even create a new one in this unallocated space. How can I resolve this issue?Additionally, I wanted to confirm if the FAT32 EFI system partition in disk belonged to windows or if it is part of the remaining files from ubuntu. If it is the remaining files, how can I delete it?

:)

Extend Volume in disk managment not working

Hi,



Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community. Let me help you.

• 
  Since when did the issue started appearing?
  
• 
  Have you made any changes in settings prior to the issue?
  
• 
  Do you receive any error code or error message on the screen?
  

I suggest you to follow the exact steps mentioned below and check if you are able to perform the action.

• 
  Run Disk Management. Open Run Command (Windows button +R) a dialog box will open and type "diskmgmt.msc".
  
• 
  In the Disk Management screen, just right-click on the partition that you want to shrink, and select “Extend Volume” from the menu
  
• 
  Locate your system partition — that’s probably the C: partition. Right-click on it and select “Shrink Volume.” If you have multiple partitions on your hard drive, you could also choose to resize a different partition to free up
  space.
  

Check if it helps.



Please reply with the details and updated status of the issue. We will be happy to assist you further.

 

Extending volume problems

I cannot extend my volumes in Disk Management or diskpart.exe, the option is greyed out. Is it because the partition is at the end of the disk? If so how to fix?
