Issues expanding C partition into Free Space
Previously I had installed Ubuntu on my laptop but, after running into some issues, had to remove it. After the partition process I ended up with the original partitions the computer came with and a lot of unallocated free space. However, the Windows 7 Disk Management tool will not allow me to expand any of the drives. I would like to enlarge the C partition to use all the available free space but after searching through various threads and articles I cannot figure out how to do so. A screen shot is attached, thanks for any help.

Hi, welcome to seven forums!
under programs and features, there should be an uninstall file to ubuntu. Also under system>advanced settings there should be somewhere where you can allocate this. Hope this helps!

The partitions need to be unallocated.

The 393GB free space and the LENOVO partition have a dark green border. LENOVO is logical partition. Together they are in the EXTENDED partition. Just download Partition Wizard HOME. Now run it and do:
right click C and do move/resize. Make it as large as you want. Now click apply How to resize Partition for Windows Server 2000/2003/2008 or Windows XP/7/Vista with partition magic manager software? Move/Resize Partition Help. |

Linux is already gone. He boots succesfully in win7 so Error 0xc0000225 on boot isn't the issue as well. The light green space is unallocated space so not a volume at all.

Yes, and you should be able to shrink the unallocated extended from windows if you wanted, correct ?

Expanding partition into free space - but it's not letting me? In a stroke of genuine, so-real-it's-true, lovingly human idiocy, I allotted myself a measly 50 GB for my Windows installation and program files! Naturally I wanted to extend this, but right ahead of the Windows partition on the drive was an Ubuntu install which took up the entire rest of the... |

System Partition with 5GB free space I partitioned my hard drive into a C drive with 60GB and a U ( for Userdata ) with 140GB of space thinking 60GB was more than enough for Windows 7 and any ancillary requirements ( email, user settings, etal. ). The U drive contains my pictures, music and so on. I now have only 5GB of storage... |
