    Hello,

    Thank you for posting your reply. Apologize for the delay in response.

    Kindly try the steps below and check if this helps.

    Open run command with Admin prompt, Right click on
    Start and select Command prompt (Admin).

    Step 1:

    • Type diskpart and hit enter.
    • Type "list volume" and hit enter to list all the volumes.
    • Now select the volume which you want to delete from the list by typing
      "select volume 5" (give volume number which you want to delete).

    • Right click on C: drive and select Extend Volume to add space to C: drive.
