How to Move Partition to End of Disk in Windows 7 /8/10?
Geeks - Moving a partition to the end of a disk in Windows 7, 8, and 10 can be useful if you want to create additional space at the beginning of the disk for a new operating system or other purposes. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to move a partition to the end of a disk in Windows:
Press the Windows key and search for "disk management". Click on the "Create and format hard disk partitions" option to open the Disk Management utility.
In the Disk Management window, right-click on the partition that you want to move and select "Shrink Volume".
In the Shrink dialog box, enter the amount of space that you want to free up from the partition in the "Enter the amount of space to shrink in MB" field. Make sure to leave enough space for the partition to be moved to the end of the disk.
Click the "Shrink" button to shrink the partition. This will create unallocated space at the beginning of the disk.
Right-click on the partition again and select "Move".
In the Move dialog box, select the unallocated space as the new location for the partition.
Click the "Move" button to move the partition to the end of the disk.
The Disk Management utility will now move the partition to the end of the disk. This process may take some time, depending on the size of the partition and the speed of your computer.
Once the process is complete, the partition will be moved to the end of the disk and the unallocated space will be at the beginning of the disk.
It is important to note that moving a partition will result in data loss if the partition contains any data. Therefore, it is recommended to back up your data before attempting to move a partition.
