  How to extend my C drive volume in Windows 7, so that the disc I want to merge in drive C is not adjacent to the C drive, please help

  Jackin salvation,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers community.

  When resizing of volumes in Windows7, you must be aware of the following criteria:

  • Only you have the possibility to reduce or enlarge NTFS or RAW (unformatted) partition using Windows 7 tools.
  • When you shrink a partition, files not movable as a page file or a shadow storage area are not resettled. This is why you cannot reduce the size of the Windows beyond volume where these types of files. If you need to reduce the volume, you will need to remove, move or delete the page file or the shadow first storage area, and then reduce the volume and then add the page file or shadow storage on the disk area.
  • If enough bad clusters are found on the disk partition will not shrink.
  • You must be logged on to an administrator account in order to resize Windows Volumes in windows 7.
  
   

  Windows 7 Partitions or Volumes of shrinkage

  This section shows must shrink a Windows volume or partition. To do this, we must open the Windows 7 disk management tool. The following steps will guide you in this process.

  1. Click the button on the Start Menu in the bottom left of your desktop , and then click the Control Panel menu option.

  2. When Control Panel opens, click on system and Maintenance category.

  3. When opens in system and Maintenance category, scroll down and click on Administrative Tools.

  4. Double-click the computer management icon. The console of the computer management will now open. Down, you will see a category called storage and under this category will be the disk management icon, as shown below.

     
  5. Click on the disk management icon, and you will now be in the disk management utility as shown in the figure below. This utility you can see all the partitions on your computer and format, delete, create, develop or resize them. For this tutorial, I'm going to resize the partition E: of 16 GB so that when completed, there is a 8 GB partition and provides another 8 GB of free space I can use for other purposes.

     
  6. To shrink the partition, just click with the right button on the partition that you want to work with and select reduce . In this example, I click right on the E: partition and in the menu that appears, I select shrink.

  7. A screen similar to the one below appears. This screen indicates the size of the current partition you, how you can reduce it to a field where you can enter a specific amount to reduce, and then how big partition will be once it shrinks. By windows 7 default enters the maximum amount that you can reduce the volume, but if you want to change this amount, do so by entering the amount in MB in the enter the amount of space to shrink in MB: field. When you are satisfied with how windows 7 will shrink the partition, click the minimize button.

     
  8. Once windows 7 is complete decreases the volume, you will be in the disk management screen, but now the partition size will be the size you requested as shown below.
  

  Now that you have reduced the size of your volume of Windows, you can close the computer management console.

  You have now finished reducing your score and you have the extra space available for use as required.

  Windows 7 Partitions or Volumes extension

  This section shows that you must extend a Windows volume. To do this, we must open the tool of disk management where we can resize our volumes. The following steps will guide you in this process.

  1. Click the button on the Start Menu in the bottom left of your desktop, and then click the Control Panel menu option.

  2. When Control Panel opens, click on system and Maintenance category.

  3. When opens in system and Maintenance category, scroll down and click on Administrative Tools.

  4. Double-click the computer management icon. The computer management console will now open. Down, you will see a category called storage and under this category will be the disk management icon, as shown below.

     
  5. Click on the disk management icon, and you will now be in the disk management utility as shown in the figure below. This utility you can see all the partitions on your computer and format, delete, create, develop or resize them. For this tutorial, I'll extend the E: partition so that it uses the rest of the available space on the disc 1.
     
     
      
  6. To extend the partition, he just click right-click on the partition that you want to work with, and then select the Extend option. In this example, I click right on the E: partition and in the menu that appears, select Extend.

  7. A wizard appears as shown below. Press the Next button to continue.

     
  8. A new screen, shown below, is displayed allowing you to select the free space available on your local hard disks that you can use to extend the space of the selected partition. It is important to note that Windows 7 allows you to extend a volume using free space on the same drive as well as the other disks. I strongly suggest that you do not extend a volume on a disk with free space of the other. It is because if one of the disks has a hardware failure, then all data on this volume will be removed. Rather just to use the free space on a drive that contains the volume you extend
     .

     

     As discussed in step 5, for this tutorial we are going to extend my 8 GB partition (drive E :) to the total size of disk 1 using all the available space. As disk 1 is only available free space on my computer, windows 7 automatically select as shown in the image above and use the maximum amount available to extend the partition. If there were other drives with free space that they have shown during the selection available . If you want to extend the volume to a lower amount you can change in the Select the amount of space in MB: field. In the contrary case, press us the button Next .

  9. You will be now be presented with a confirmation screen. If you are sure you want to extend the volume, press the Finish button. Otherwise, press the back button to make changes or the Cancel button to cancel this operation.

  10. Once Windows 7 completed to extend the volume, you will be on the screen disk management, where you can see the amount that you have extended with the new size. An example of this is shown below.
  

  At this point, you can close the Management window of the computer that your task is completed.

  Hope this information is useful.

• Qosmio X 500-165 - how to extend the C drive?

  Just bought the Qosmio X 500-165. Does anyone know how to extend the C drive, I get a sign that it is almost full, despite installing all my programs on the partitioned disks that I created? I need to uninstall the software installed by toshiba?

  Any suggestions gratefully received. Thank you

  Hey Buddy,

  The 500-165 X is equipped with 64 GB SSD and HDD of 750 GB. I don t know the exact partition structure but I assume that Windows is installed on the SSD which is the C drive and HARD drive is your second drive D.

  I recommend to move all files such as photos, videos, music, drive D to improve disk space on c. usually 64 GB SSD should be sufficient for all applications because Windows 7 needs only 20 GB.

  Also, try to reduce the system restore points and delete temporary folders. CCleaner can also help you to clean your system. :)

• Qosmio F50 - 10 M - infrared driver for Windows 7 64 bit missing

  I want to change my OS from VISTA (32 bit) to Windows 7 (64-bit), I'm on downloading all the drivers needed for the proper functioning of my laptop in the future.

  When the choice of my laptop (Qosmio F50 - 10 M) and operating system (Windows7 - 64 bit) there is no more infrared driver (for my remote).

  Do I need to have a driver for the infrared interface (which I have and is downloadable with VISTA32)?
  If Yes, where can I get it?

  Thank you very much for the help!

  Kind regards
  starmind

  Hi Starmind_1,

  I n t have remote to test my Qosmio F50 so that I can t but if there is no driver for Windows 7, I guess that the 64 bit Vista driver should work fine on Windows 7. In addition most Vista drivers also work on Windows 7 so it s worth a try! :)

  But from my own experience, I can say that Windows 7 64 bit works like a charm on Qosmio F50 and in my opinion better than Vista. I used all the drivers from the official website of Toshiba and don t have problems.
  Everything works great! :)

• No Apple USB driver in Windows 10 Device Manager

  Is there a way to retrieve the Apple USB driver in Windows 10 Device Manager.  I downloaded the iTunes 12.3.3 yesterday and now he is gone.

  I tried

  • plug into each of my Apple devices (iPod, iPad, iPhone, iPhone 4S 6)
  • restarting my computer
  • disabled my virus protection software
  • synchronization with different strings (some Apple, others not)
  • my devices restart and try again
  • Uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling
  • Uninstalling iTunes and goes back to and older version
  • make a Windows system to a restore point when I could synchronize my devices

  My main problem is that I need to sync my devices and iTunes does not detect them without the driver.  Windows can detect my devices and they appear in the file Explorer.  I am also able to get pictures and videos I've taken off the power unit and on my computer with no problems.

  Anything else I can try?  I'm out of ideas.  Thank you!

  This can help:

  If iTunes does not recognize your iPhone, iPad or iPod - Apple Support

  Refer to the section:

  If you are using a Windows PC

  and read carefully.  Depending on your version of Windows the Apple Mobile device driver may appear in different places.

  Other than that, the General adzice is to demolish EVERYTING associated with iTunes and reinstall.  See excellent iTunes for Windows troubleshooting page located at turingtest2:

  Troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates

  especially the section:

  Remove and then reinstall iTunes and other software components
