Windows Server 2019 Extend C Drive

Question

I need to extend the C drive space without data loss. There is an E drive which contains 820GB. I want to use the space from that drive but the Delete Volume and Extend Volume options are grayed out. What do I need to do to get this problem resolved?

Answer 1

Please share a screen shot from DiskMgmt.msc, so that wen understand the deployment & better advise..

Answer 2

Hi,

Are the C and E drive adjacent partitions on the same disk? If not, are those disks basic or dynamic?

Can you share a screenshot of your Disk Management?

Delete the E drive with diskpart and see if there are any error messages. Make sure you have backed up all your data before any operation.
