My C drive is too small, how can I make it bigger?

You can adjust the space of adjacent disks to the C drive.

To repartition, reseat the system.

Change computers. Or change the memory card.

2. In the pop-up Extended Partition Wizard, select "Expand System Partition", and then click "Next" at the bottom.

3. The hard disk partition tool will prompt the user that only if the hard disk partition is in NTFS format, the capacity of the C drive can be expanded. If the previous partition of the computer's hard disk is in NTFS format, you can click "Next" at the bottom to continue.

4. Select the D drive and click "Next" at the bottom.

5. Then re-select the size of the C partition, for example, the previous system C disk is 50GB capacity, now you can drag and expand to 80GB, the additional 30GB is expanded from the D disk selected above, after adjusting the size of the C disk, continue to click "Next" at the bottom.

6. The partition tool will prompt that the capacity of drive D will be reduced after the expansion of the C disk, if it is confirmed, click Execute at the bottom to start the expansion of the system disk.

7. After clicking Execute, the partition assistant will pop up a prompt box, which roughly means the approximate time required to complete the expansion of the C drive, and in the expansion of the tool, please do not operate the computer, confirm the expansion of the C drive, then click on the bottom is.

8. Click Yes to confirm the expansion of the C drive, and finally wait for the partition assistant to automatically complete the expansion of the C drive.

If the C drive partition is smaller, you can expand the cloud as follows:

1. Uninstall the useless idle software of the C disk to expand the space of the C disk, after a period of use, the computer will definitely install a large number of software, including a lot of idle software, which is rarely used at ordinary times, and if it is not uninstalled, it will occupy the space of the C disk, so these idle software should be uninstalled.

2. Use system optimization tools to regularly clean up system junk files and software caches.

3. Use the disk partition tool to expand the capacity of the C drive losslessly.

4. In addition, you can also use professional partitioning software to expand the capacity, because in the process of using the computer, each disk has stored more data, if you directly partition yourself, it is easy to cause data loss or damage in the disk, so it is not recommended that you adjust the partition by yourself.

And many computer novices, for the computer is not very knowledgeable, in the process of expanding the C disk partition may also have some unexpected accidents, then it is too late to cry!

5. Move desktop files to other disks, it is estimated that many people like to put some files on the desktop, it is indeed very convenient to find, some small files are okay, if the files are relatively large, it will cause some pressure on the C disk.

At this time, you can go to other disks to create a new folder, preferably named "Desktop Files" for easy access in the future. Copy the path of the new folder into the selection box and click Move.

Other partitions that occupy C disk space are small, you can also use this method to move, this is a once and for all method, after the move, the files will be automatically stored in the disk you moved.

1.Uninstall unnecessary programs and files.

Uninstalling some useless programs and files on the C drive can free up system resources and store these programs and files in other partitions.

2.Transfer files to other partitions.

You can move documents and folders to other partitions, but not system software and programs.

3.Shrink other partitions.

If there is enough space in the other partitions, you can reduce the free space in the other partitions and allocate them to the C drive. During this process, it is important to reserve some space for the C drive to ensure the stability of the system.

4.Use Windows Disk Utility.

Windows Disk Utility allows you to expand the size of your C drive. Open Disk Utility, right-click on the C drive, and select Extend Volume. In the window that appears, select the free space you want to add to the C drive and follow the prompts step by step.

5.Use third-party software to make adjustments.

Using third-party software to make or boring adjustments on the C drive can better get rid of the shackles of system files and applications. This method requires careful handling of the Object Group to avoid data loss and system crashes.

In short, the insufficient size of the C drive will hinder the stability and performance of the system, so on the premise of ensuring data security, you should make full use of all the space in the computer hard disk for expansion.

DiskPart is a Windows program that works with disks, partitions, or volumes through scripts or input commands. To enlarge the C drive, you need to enter list volume, select volume c, and extend in the diskpart command to enlarge the C drive. However, it is recommended that you be cautious when operating to avoid data loss caused by mistakes.

1.Press the Windows + R keys at the same time, enter "diskpart" in the pop-up dialog box, and press the enter key to open diskpart.

2.Enter the following commands in turn and press enter after each command.

Type "List Volume" and press "Enter" on your keyboard to display the existing volume on your computer.

Type "Select Volume C" and press "Enter" on your keyboard to select the C drive.

Enter "extend [size=n]" to expand the C drive to an N partition.

Please click Enter a description.

While it may seem simple to expand a C drive with DiskPart, there are actually certain limitations to using DiskPart to expand a C drive:

The extend command takes effect only when there is adjacent unallocated space to the right of the extended partition.

NTFS partition expansion is supported. i.e. fat32 or exfat partitions cannot be expanded.

Unallocated space can't be displayed in the command window, so you don't know if there's room to expand.

The operation is irreversible, and incorrect operation may lead to data loss.

If the C drive is too small, just expand the capacity of the C drive, compress the disk adjacent to the C disk or delete the volume, and then get a blank unprocessed space. Then you can expand the volume to the C drive. The details are as follows:

1. In Disk Management, right-click the disk on the right side of the C drive, here is the F drive.

2. Click Delete Volume in the pop-up menu.

3. Right-click on the disk again and select Delete Partition.

4. Right-click on the C drive, select Extended Volume, and then follow the wizard step by step.

Pay attention to the important data of the disk before operation!

If the expansion is still not large enough, you can also clean up your C disk space, if you want to format the C disk, then choose the U disk reinstallation system method to achieve the purpose of formatting the C disk.
