Move Unallocated Space to the C drive in Windows 10, 8, 7
Geeks - Moving unallocated space to the C drive in Windows 10, 8, or 7 can be a useful way to free up space on your C drive and improve the performance of your computer. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to do it:
Press the Windows key and type "disk management" into the search bar. Then click on the "Create and format hard disk partitions" option that appears.
In the Disk Management window, right-click on the unallocated space and select "New Simple Volume."
In the New Simple Volume Wizard, click "Next" to begin the process of creating a new volume using the unallocated space.
On the Specify Volume Size screen, you can specify the size of the volume you want to create. If you want to use all of the unallocated space, you can simply leave the default values and click "Next."
On the Assign Drive Letter or Path screen, select the drive letter that you want to assign to the new volume. If you want to move the unallocated space to the C drive, select "C" as the drive letter. Then click "Next."
On the Format Partition screen, you can specify the formatting options for the new volume. Choose a file system (such as NTFS or FAT32), assign a volume label, and choose the allocation unit size. Then click "Next."
Review the summary of the new volume settings, and then click "Finish" to create the new volume and move the unallocated space to the C drive.
The new volume will be created and added to the C drive, and the unallocated space will be gone. You can now use this space to store your files and programs.
Keep in mind that moving unallocated space to the C drive will not necessarily increase the overall capacity of your hard drive. It simply allows you to use the unallocated space as part of the C drive. If you want to increase the capacity of your hard drive, you will need to physically add more storage by installing a larger hard drive or using an external drive.
