I don’t know what I did but I must’ve messed up somehow while deleting the distro, so now I only have 700 gigs of my total 1tb of disk space left, when I try to merge the other unallocated 300gigs of space back to the drive, it says “there’s not enough space in the disk(s)”. Anyone willing to help? here are the screenshots:
Is that EFI partition still being used? I take it there’s a EFI partition on your windows drive, correct?
What you can do is create a bootable usb with a live linux distro and use gparted to sort out your partitions
I had a run in with this problem, exact same situation. It’s because the disk is dynamic instead of basic. Heres a solution: https://superuser.com/questions/1489311/cannot-extend-drive-there-is-not-enough-space-available-on-the-disk-to-complete
Altough i determined the 200gigs I lost is not worth the (risk) trouble of losing everything else, so I didn’t go with that solution.> GParted
Just for my personal curiosity, could you clarify what you mean when you say Linux is “too addicting” for you?
