I simply want to turn 'EISA|Unallocated|OS (C:)' into 'EISA|OS (C:)'. 2017 How to extend a disk partition (logical volume) with unallocated disk. In our case there is a recovery partition in between and therefor the primary partition (C:) cannot be extended. Couldnt find any article that explained step by step how to resize the main.

Blocked because you can only extend your existing partition with unallocated space directly to the right of the partition you want to extend. I want to run as few partitions as possible with one OS and one drive letter. More often than not, the partition you want to extend is blocked by a Recovery Partition. Is it possible to recover this space WITHOUT messing up my OS or any of the data in C:?Īgain, I don't want to make a bunch of partitions, or run multiple Operating Systems, or anything like that.

How do I merge it into my C: drive? Disk Manager says it won't extend into space before a partition, but this is what I want to do.

What I do care about is the 10 Gigs of unallocated space. I don't really care about that as it is only 86 MB, though I would be interested in knowing exactly what it is for. I have done some research online and learned that the EISA partition is important and should be kept, and Disk Management won't let me delete it anyway. Somehow my drive has ended up with three partitions: an unnamed 86 MB partition labeled 'Healthy (EISA Configuration)', an unnamed 10 GB partition labeled 'Unallocated', and finally a 222.8 GB NTFS partition named 'OS (C:)' and labeled 'Healthy (System, Boot, Page File, Active, Crash Dump, Primary Partition).
