Problem Faced while extending C Drive:
My hard disk was initially divided into two Partitions, one is C Drive that contains OS and the other one is D Drive for data. As the usage became more, more and more programs got installed making C Drive out of space.I had enough free space in D Drive. I wanted to reduce the size of D Drive and increase the size of C Drive.
The OS in my machine is Windows 7. It has in built partitioning functions in Computer -> Manage -> Storage -> Disk Management. I used options like Shrink Volume and Extend Volume by right clicking on the different drives.
But, I could not extend C Drive by using the space released from D drive.
I thought this might be a common problem faced by many others. That's why I am sharing how I extended C Drive using Partition Wizard from MiniTool.
