    Unable to put my Unallocated space to my Windows C drive


    As much I've tried a restart and Run as administrator on computer management, it seemed like it wants to prevent me from adding my unallocated space to my C drive. If anyone could tell me asap.

    :)

    Unallocated Space to C Drive

    Hi Travis,

    It appears that a disk partition was created but was never assigned its allocation. Assuming there are no files stored in the unallocated partition, perform these steps to combine it with your C: drive:

    • In Disk Management, right-click on (CUnable to put my Unallocated space to my Windows C drive :) which appears next to the
      Unallocated partition.
    • Select Extend.

    Let us know if you're able to combine the spaces after following the steps above.

    Regards.

    Unable to put my Unallocated space to my Windows C drive

    Unable to extend C drive with Unallocated Space

    Hi, I recently installed a new 500GB NVME SSD into my laptop. I installed windows 10 using the backup from my old SSD. After successful boot, I noticed that the total space on Windows explorer is lower than the drive capacity.

    Through disk management, we can see the unallocated space of 227GB

    I then tried to use the function of 'Extend Volume' but noticed it was greyed out as shown above. After looking online, tools such as MiniTool Partition and AOMEI Partition Assistant were suggested so that I can merge both partitions but to no avail. I think it has something to do with the fact that the drive on both tools is stated to be Bitlocker Encrypted.

    I then tried to unlock the drive so that I can merge both partitions but CMD states that the drive is not encrypted, Windows 10 settings states that bitlocker encryption is off CMD Screenshot

    From my understanding of the issue, I have unallocated space on C drive that I cannot merge with the main partition due to the drive stating that it is encrypted even tho it doesn't seem to be. What can be done so I can Merge both partition to have 1 drive of 465GB total storage? Thanks in advance for help on this issue!
