Hi Austin,
You should be able to do this in "Computer Management (Local)", Storage: Disk
Management.
First, backup the partition which is going to provide you with more space.
Second, backup the partition which is going to provide you with more space.
You will then have to delete that current partition. Not format - delete.
You should now find that when you select the main C: partition that "Extend
Partition" will no longer be greyed out and you can decide how big you want it.
It may seem logical to "Shrink" a volume, and you could try this if you have
sighted help. However, the expansion space needs to be adjacent to the volume
you want to extend.
All this is in the Help for Computer Management.
George.
