  1. Partition extensions


    Hi there, I completely messed up my HDD partitions :I was trying to extend my C drive since the partition was only 512gb and installation of games have it at 99% used. I have now got 3 pieces of partitions that is not used. I initially had C, D and E drives - both 2 TB with C drive partitioned. I was trying to get my C drive up to 1TBI've tried fixing with software but there's no free software that allows me to relocate space from one partition to another. Volume D says there's data on it, MSI testdata.dat file which is always in use so I'm not able to format this driveHow do I go about fixin

    :)

    W7 Hard drive partition issue

    to get rid of that 100 meg windows partition that setup creates for you on a new install on a blank hdd:

    - press shift+f10 when on the partition management screen in setup <-- this opens a command prompt
    - diskpart <-- start the windows command line partition management tool
    - list disk <--- list the installed hdds in this computer for the next step
    - select disk 0 <- might have to replace 0 with the number of the correct disk
    - clean <-- this will erase all data on the disk you selected one step up- dont use the wrong disk!
    - create partition primary <- creates a primary partition taking up all space on the drive, adjust the command if necessary
    - exit, exit to exit diskpart and the command prompt
    - click refresh in partition manager and select your newly created partition and install to that

    Cannot install Edge extension Translator

    Hi,

    I realize the inconvenience you are experiencing with installing Edge extension translator. I will certainly help you with the issue.

    I would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below and check if that helps:

    • Open Powershell as admin.
    • Type: "Get-AppxPackage *pocket* | Remove-AppxPackage" without the quotes this will unsintall pocket. You can try skipping step 3.
    • Type: "Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers| Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”}" without the quotes.

      this will reinstall all stock apps including the Windows Store
    • Now you should be able to install Pocket through the Windows Store.

    Note: Replace *pocket* in step 2 with *extensionname* (example: pocket extension).

    Hope this information helps.



    Please get back to us with an update on the issue, we will be happy to help.
