If you’re running out of space on your hard drive and need to resize your partition, EaseUS Partition Master is a great free tool to use. This software has been around for a long time and is widely popular. In addition to resizing partitions, it also offers free data recovery, backup and recovery, and PC transfer software.
To begin resizing a partition, launch EaseUS Partition Master and select the partition you want to resize. In this case, the user wants to shrink their old partition in order to enlarge the C Drive. Right-click on the partition and select “resize” or click on the partition and go to “resize” in the toolbar.
When the resize window opens, don’t be tempted to type anything or use the map. Instead, click on the slider in the top portion of the window and drag it down to shrink the partition. The unallocated space will be shown in the bottom portion of the window. Click “OK” to complete the shrinking process.
Next, click on the C Drive partition and either right-click and select “resize” or click on the partition and go to “resize” in the toolbar. This time, drag the slider to the right to add the unallocated space to the C Drive partition. Click “OK” to complete the process.
Before the changes take effect, click “apply” to confirm the pending operations. The computer will need to restart to complete the resizing process. Once it’s finished, check that the partitions have been resized as intended.
Using EaseUS Partition Master is a straightforward process and can save you a lot of time and effort in the long run. Give it a try if you’re running out of space on your hard drive.
