Deleting Unallocated Space Partition

[LTCSZ]

As you can see from the screenshot, somehow I have acquired a partition of unallocated space of approx 195 GB...I want to delete this partition, adding the extra GB to my main, OS:C partition, but I cannot figure out how to do it...Can someone help? Thanks a lot,

It is already deleted, that is why you can't.

What you can do is grow your C partition into that space (forget whether it is called merge or grow or expand).

I can't believe an OEM would setup that many partitions.

1. System partition
2. OEM partition
3. not 1 but 2 partitions for System Recovery
4. OS partition

Completely ridiculous!

However to stay on topic, @SNGX1275 is correct. Select the OS partition and stretch across the unallocated space.

Type "cmd" into the search box and press: CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER
Answer "YES" to the UAC elevation prompt.

Type:
Diskpart
select volume C
extend

Wait for it to complete
Then type exit to exit diskpart
And exit again to exit the command prompt
