I have 50gb of unallocated space on my hard drive. I cannot seem to resize my main drive (C:/). Can anyone help?

Notes:
I am using easeus
Screenshot:

I cannot move the 2 partitions before the unallocated space

To fix it on mine all i did was was increase the volume of C.
Don't know if it will help you.

I had that problem on my external hard drive, and when I was using Windows I deleted the volume for what I partitioned, and it said I lossed 160GB, but when I used Linux I fixed the whole thing by partitioning it all.

1. Right 'My Computer' and select 'Manage'
2. Click 'Disk Management' under 'Storage'.
3. Delete the unallocated partition.
4. Right click C drive or other partition you want to increase and select 'Extend Volume'. After these operations you can merge partitions and increase the system partition.

How do I delete an unallocated partition? Isn't that like deleting nothing?

That is rlly weird...

An unallocated partition is a part of a drive, that isn't partitioned at all. When you delete it, you should be able to expand the partition to makeup the space. However if it's an external device Windows will show that the drive is only how much space you partitioned it previously (ex. my 500GB external hard drive only showed I had 160GB)

I was only able to fix my issue with Disk Utility on Linux, cause the Windows partitioning apps I got didn't help, as they all showed the same thing.

I suggest trying Agust's step, and if it don't work install Linux on a cd/dvd, or flash drive, and use disk utility to fix your partitioning problem.

An unallocated 'partition' cannot be deleted as it is not really a partition. It just represents space that is not used.

According to the screenshot, you would have to move the other 2 partitions to the right so you can increase the size of the C: drive.

The most reliable way to resize your system partition is to boot from a different disk first, then run a repartition utility from there.
Remember to back up your data before doing this.

The only way I did this (with easeus) is this way: the unallocated space should be before the partition that needs to be increased , so increase the front of C:\ and decrease the end of C:\ and so on
teamviewer would help ?

The free space can also be after the target partition, but there cannot be another partition in the way (logically).
