Windows 10: Merging partitions

I just upgraded my main windows 10 drive from 250 to 500 GB by cloning the drive. How do I merge the un-allocated portion with the active portion so Windows sees the full capacity of the drive??

Cant merge Partitions

Hi folks,
i was trying to merge a partition to another one but i couldnt, it said i didnt have GPT or that i dont have enough space to extend it, does anyone know why? there is only 1 unallocated partition im trying to merge into another partition that has files, the idea is to keep the files intact. i tried deleting it then using the extend function but nada. pls help

Move the files, backed up. Use Easeus to delete both partitions, merge, make new parition, and move files back.

 

Disk management can't merge two partition. (One of them was a linux based partition)

Hi Kevin,

There are different factors that can contribute as to why you not able to merge or extend the space used by a specific partition on the hard drive. one possible cause could be due to the unallocated space having a different file format. For us to resolve
your concern, kindly answer the questions below:

• Was the option "extend volume" greyed out?
• Were there any error messages when you attempted to extend or merge the unallocated space?
• What file system did you use when you formatted the partition?
• Which version and build of Windows 10 is installed on your computer?
