Extending C
I have been messing around with partitions for a while now, but have never tried to extend or change a C: partition before. Now I find that I need more space on my C: partition, but, unfortunately, the partition is to the right of the space I want to extend into.
So, I tried method 2 of the tutorial provided on this site, and it didn't work saying that I didn't have enough space. I've downloaded MiniTool Partition Wizard, but I am a bit nervous here.
First, is it safe to do anything with the C: partition? I mean...it is in use while the OS is in use. It is the active/boot/system partition on that drive.
Second, is there a way to physically move the C: partition to the left/ first spot on the drive?
I guess I just don't quite understand how partitioning operations work, even though I understand what a partition is. Since I have a new, 2TB drive, and will be getting another one soon, I'd like to make the whole HD that my C: partition is on, into one big C: drive, since I no longer need to share it for other things.
Anyone have advice on this?
