    Cannot Extend Volume In Disk Management On Bootcamp


    I have been running bootcamp on my IMac for quite some time now, and I've began to run out of space on my C: drive. I have shrunk the size of my Mac OS partition, however I cannot extend the Windows 7 partition into the free space. I would prefer to do this without external programs, as I have had trouble with them before.
    Also, here is an image of the Disk management window when I try to get it to extend.

    Welcome to the forum,

    Unfortunately you will have to resort to a third party program because windows disk manager won't let you extend to the left.

    The partition wizard bootable CD is a good choice,
