    Extend C drive Size

    Your Image does not show a D partition. It does show an F partition which if reduced in size would enable you to increase the size of the C partition.



    These are the steps needed to enable you to increase the size of your C partition:




    • Reduce F by 20 gb placing the unallocated space before F.

    • Increase the Recovery partition by 20 gb taking up unallocated space created by Step 1.

    • Reduce the Recovery partition by 20 gb placing the unallocated space before the Recovery partition.

    • Increase the C partition by 20 gb to take in the unallocated space before the Recovery partition.


    You can use Easeus Partition Manager (freeware) to carry out these tasks. The files in each partition are automatically moved when you carry out each step detailed above.

    Increasing Partition Size


    You can't remove unallocated space, because it is, by definition, unallocated. Do what LX07 and Cereberus are suggesting and get the free Minitool. Best Free Partition Manager for Windows | MiniTool Partition Free You will be able to shrink "D" and expand "C" easily and safely. Download and install it, and someone here will walk you thru the few simple steps.

    increase size of C primary partition in win 10 when replacing drive

    My new Windows 10 PC already has half of the C drive full. Should I increase this partition size?

    My new Win 10 HP Desktop has a 1TB HD and half of the C drive is alredy full and the D drive is empty. When I copy all of my documents, pictures and music from my old PC over, I expect it will be full! Can I increase the C drive size and reduce the D partition
    size without any issues? Why was it partitioned this way to start with?
