    how to resize my win7 partition


    i read all the topics from here but i am unable to resize my win 7 partition .
    i think the problem is that the free space is in the extended partition . how to get the free space from the extended partition without erase or format the other partition (D and E)

    download something like Acronis Disk Director and re-size the extended partition to move the free space outside of it.

    Sassa that's a different problem.

    With only 3 partitions none of them were "extended".

    In "Disk Management", you can just delete the empty partition. It will be shown as unallocated space behind the W7 partition. Then you can just extend the Windows 7 volume with that unallocated space by right clicking on the empty space and extend volume.

    Before you restart/reboot, read the following link regarding boot recovery, if any:
    System Recovery Options
    He can only disregard first sentence, cause he already have free space...

    Sassa, it won't work. Because the free space is inside the extended partition.

    That method only works if you delete one of the primary partitions which he does not want to do.
