Can't Upgrade Windows 7 to 10 because of small Reserved Partition

I have problem with upgrade of windows 7. Can't do this beause reserved partion has 30MB (ACTIVE,SYSTEM), C: is Boot. First time i see such strange configuration. I can't extend reserved partition any of tools. What can i do?

Welcome to the forums. You can use disk Management and either delete it then move c left or you can shrink c a bit then move it right and then you can grow it or use partitioning software it's simpler

I have three win 7 laptops here and they're all using 36 MB on the system partition. I'm confused? Try using either:
Free download Magic Partition Manager Software, partition magic alternative, free partition magic, partition magic Windows 7 and server partition software - Partition Wizard Online
Download Magic

Free Partition Manager Software - AOMEI Partition Assistant Standard
to extend the System partition to 199 MB. Which all these laptops have, Dell HP and Asus.

Thanks for quick reply @samuria
I cant delete or extend this partition only shrink. The same with third party software EaseUS, AOEMI.
@billmcct
When i choose extend system partition it see only C: partition not this reserved. When i click directly on this partition i can't extend it.
I had a 4-5 laptops in my hands with win 7 and there always was 100MB partition at least.

Are you saying that it won't allow you to upgrade the computer because of the 30mb partition? Also, are you saying that the 30mb partition is the active/system partition, or are you saying that C: is the active/system partition?

It is normal to have a reserved partition at the beginning of the drive - this is typically where the Factory Reset files are stored. If this is the Factory Reset partition, then it would be a good idea to keep it, so that in the future you can restore the original condition of the laptop if necessary.

I have never heard of this partition preventing someone from upgrading from 7 to 10.

Solved: Windows 10 - We Couldn't Update System Reserved Partition – EaseUS
and something new, i didnt see this post earlier https://support.microsoft.com/en-hk/...alling-windows
30mb partition is system,active
Before working dell i also didnt have problem with upgrade

That is helpful information. I didn't realize that the system partition might be full, and that making it a little bigger could solve this problem. I'd probably use the EaseUS tools and do both of the fixes that EaseUS recommends.

Dear All,

I was on holiday. Sorry for late response.
