New Samsung laptop, changing partition disks?
I got my new laptop today, the setup asked me about the partition which I had no idea about, so after watching this vid Samsung PC Software - Easy Partition Manager - YouTube
I was aiming to have my programs run on drive D and have personal files etc on drive C. So I gave drive D more space...
However, once I set up and started to transfer my files into my user file with the documents & pictures folders etc, the C drive only had 18% left while the D drive had 99%
I didn't know what to do, I read that I couldn't move my user folder to the D drive?? or move the pre installed programs to the D drive as it would cause issues. So I went into the disk management and tried to shrink the D drive. That was fine but it wasn't allowing me to extend the C drive. So I deleted drive D as I hadn't had much in it yet. However now, the 'free space' seems to be wrapped in a border saying 'extended partition'
I've no idea what do now, I don't know how to fix this and even so..I've no idea now how I should have set up with using two drives for programmes and my files.
Please could someone help me? I don't understand much of the technical stuff with this problem, which is probably why I should have left it alone.

(Please read all of this thread as it shows the lack of good customer service by Samsung, I personally recommend people NOT to buy a Samsung laptop)
