| 1198739 | 2011-05-02 07:14:00 | I think what you need to do is: "Extend" E by 4.88 GB "Shrink" E by however many extra GB (e.g. 10 GB) you want on C "Extend" C by that same size (e.g. 10 GB) to fill the newly created gap. Have fun! |

Have fun! Does not work. E has been shrunk by 4.88GB It's now seen as "unallocated" If I right click C - extend is greyed out. |

| 1198741 | 2011-05-02 08:55:00 | Yeah, you can't extend C into the free space on the other side of E. The free space has to be adjacent to the partition you are extending. | fred_fish (15241) | ||
| 1198742 | 2011-05-02 09:22:00 | Does not work. Did you follow my first line - "Extend" E by 4.88 GB What happened? |

| 1198743 | 2011-05-02 10:08:00 | To make it VERY EASY download FREE EASEUS Partition Master 8.0.1 Home Edition (www.partition-tool.com) 8.5MB. Simply mouse drag the GUI to your required partition sizes and positions - simple and tested working 100% here on many occasions. |

| 1198744 | 2011-05-02 10:21:00 | Which I already said back in post #5 more or less. :) | Snorkbox (15764) | ||
| 1198745 | 2011-05-02 10:25:00 | +1 then. ;) | Scubadoo (16151) | ||
| 1198746 | 2011-05-02 10:28:00 | Did you follow my first line - "Extend" E by 4.88 GB What happened? When I extend E - the unalloc section dissapears and E takes that up. Then as you say - shrink it to whatever I want - the unalloc section comes back. Then extend C - that option is greyed out. I'll look at some software, currently C is having just over 1GB of free space. |

The free space has to be adjacent to the partition you are extending. possibly a valid point. if you dont have much on E:, copy it off to something, delete that partition, than extend C: and recreate a partition for E: from what ever space is left. |

Not as an option. As some of my profile folders are on E. Delete option is greyed out. |
