Disk Shrinking problem. Cannot access to Virtual Disk Service
I was in Disk Management and was shrinking my disk C: where Windows 7 is located, to make room for another operating system. The window seemed as if it crashed so I closed it. It was a mistake. I opened it back up and now it's stuck at "Connecting to Virtual Disk Service". Partitions don't show up.
I can't dare to shut down the PC because I'm scared that it will never open because I have played with its consistency by stopping a partitioning process. I can't run CHKDSK because Windows is running on it.
Do you think the testdisk command of Linux Terminal will work? I once recreated partition tables flawlessly with it.
And how deep poop am I in, right now? The PC is working but I just can't guarantee the next boot.
Best regards.
UPDATE: I downloaded Partition Wizard and everything seems ok in there. Looks as if it was never partitioned at all. There's no unallocated space unlike what I thought.
