  1. Windows C drive too small and nearly full, how can I extend it?


    The latest Windows 10 update has taken my windows c drive to near capacity, I have plenty of room on d drive so do I need to buy something like Partition Magic or is there a Windows 10 tool that can assist?

    Extend drive C

    Is it possible to extend drive C across another drive. The PC is 12 months old, has a 119gb SSD fitted which has the OS and apps on it. It is now nearly full. There is a 1TB internal drive with all data on it. Also there are 2 external drives, 5TB and a
    500SSD. Any help/advice would be much appreciated.

    Thanks

    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.
