    Hi there,

    You cannot move free space from D drive to your C drive without the help of third-party tools. You can either delete or move to the D drive files that are now on your C drive (which will thus create more space on the C drive).

    If you are planning to clear up some space in the C drive then you can use the built-in Disk Cleanup tool which will clear out the spaces in the C drive.

    The other way around is to use some third-party tools like Easeus which might help you in transferring your free space from D to C drive.
