    Problem Extending Partition


    just recently started using dual boot and I greatly underestimated how much data Win7 needs to install so the size of my partition is on the small side. So I shrank the volume of my Win10 partition but when I go to mange it I can't extend the volume of the win7 partition to the unallocated space. Is there something wrong or is it not possible? In the picture the 55GB one is Win7

I shrinked my E: drive which happens to be the primary partition though Windows is not installed on it. And now when I try to extend the D: drive using the un-allocated space the "Extend volume" option is greyed out. The "Extend volume" option is greyed out even for C: drve. But works fine...

According to the help files the adjacent partition should allow me to be extended and absorb the partition next to it which is free space. See screenshot. Why does it not allow it?
