Partition or Volume - Extend

Jack, Make an image of C and the System partition before you extend C. Partition Wizard will shove the whole content of the C partition around and you never know what can happen. The extend operation will take a little while, so be patient.

I once lost a whole disk because I made a little mistake with PW - but, of course, I had my images so it was no big deal.

I have been trying Option Two and all I get is.

Partition or Volume - Extend

This size of the extend is less than minimum

That does not work at all because the unallocated space is to the left of the partition. You have to use the Partition Wizard bootable CD and follow the tutorial in Shawn's post above.

I just used Partition Wizard now I got this.

That looks like what you wanted, LOL

My understanding of Option Two is it allows you to extend a partition to the left into unallocated space.

I have tried several times for a couple of hours and can't make it do such a thing.
I started out just making the reserve partition larger because it was showing RED, running low on space.

If all possible I try to use Windows to do Windows things but it don't always work out that way.

Thank you both for coming to my rescue so quickly. I forgot all about PW.

Glad we could help.

What I was trying to make work. From the tutorial.

Partition or Volume - Extend

5. In the middle pane, right click on the partition or volume directly adjacent (left) of the unallocated space that you want to extend into, and click on Extend Volume. (See screenshot above)
NOTE: If the partition that you want to extend is to the right of the unallocated space, then you will need to use METHOD TWO below to extend it instead.

I'm obviously not understanding what that means.

I didn't notice a Method Two so I went for Option Two.

Hmm, not sure why that was there. It'll only work if the unallocated space you want to extend into is directly right of the partition you want to extend.
