As we can notice in the example, there is no unallocated space to extend the system partition. So, first we have to shrink other volume to get some unallocated space. Let us consider our system Partition is C: drive. So, we can shrink E: drive for some space.

STEP 3:

To shrink partition (example E: drive) we have to select the drive other than system drive, right click and select resize/Move partition option. Decrease the size of the drive. Now, the decreased size will create an unallocated space.

Now, when we have the unallocated space, we can merge this space with the system drive. To do so, Click on system Partition (Example C: Drive), right click and select Resize/Move Partition. Increase the size of system drive and click apply. EaseUS will add the unallocated space automatically.

  1. Hi, I can’t use Easeus to extend the new unallocated capacity since the right bang displays only recover partition / properties and no Resize/Move partition order… ?

    1. You can’t extend the unallocated space. You can use the unallocated space to extend existing partition!
