    Recovering 350mb Unalocated Space


    Agree that Minitool will easily do the job. And safely. (that 350 MB looks suspiciously like it used to be a recovery partition). C should be shrunk. 126GB is way more than you need for an OS partition. Also appears the box is legacy, not UEFI. And if it's not already, set the drive to GPT, not MBR, with MiniTool. Allows for future primary partitions, should the need ever arise.

    Don't know if anyone has mentioned this, BEFORE doing any changes to your partitions, make sure you make a Complete Image Backup of your Drive !!!! I suggest you use Macrium Reflect, and also make the Media Rescue disk, BEFORE doing any changes to your partitions! This will give you Insurance incase something goes wrong after you change your partitions.

    You cannot change drive with OS to GPT if using a legacy bios install.

    You can change a data drive but rarely needed unless greater than 2.2 TB.
