    Hi Rafael

    Sorry, I was offline, that operation also failed, honestly, it would be best to use that 3rd party disk utility I mentioned above.

    Hi Dave

    I just went deeper and I guess the issue is I can't delete partition D:

    I tried to format it and it looks blocked by some application I couldn't identify, that's the reason I can't delete the partition (I guess)

    I closed all the programs including Onedrive; is there any possibility to identify whats the application that is accessing the partition?

    Hi Rafael,

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    Windows10 has very limited partitioning capability, it can only extend a partition into a space that is directly to the right of the partition to be extended.

    Because the D drive partition is between the C drive partition and the unallocated Space, Windows 10 will refuse to extend the C drive partition.

    You will need to use a 3rd party utility like the free version of AOMEI Partition Assistant to extend C into that unallocated space, the free version of AOME is fully featured and easy to use.

    In AOMEI, select Merge partitions, on the C drive, then add that unallocated space and click OK, then click Apply at the top left of AOMEI.
