4 Topics[Unsolved] How to add unallocated space to C drive when it’s not adjacent?
I recently noticed that my C drive is running out of space. So, I opened Disk Management and saw that there is some unallocated space on my disk. I thought I could just extend the C drive, but when I right-click on it, the "Extend Volume" option is greyed out. It seems like the unallocated space is not directly next to the C drive on the right side. I’m not really sure how to move or merge that unallocated space into C drive. Is there a way to add unallocated space to C drive in this situation? Do I need to use some third-party software, or is there a way to do it with the built-in tools?43Views0likes1CommentWindows was unable to complete the format? Help!
Hey guys. I’m trying to reformat my USB drive to make it a bootable disk, but I keep getting errors. (SanDisk Ultra Dual Drive Go USB) In File Explorer, it shows “Windows was unable to complete the format”. I tried diskpart with clean, create partition primary, and format, but it just says “Format failed”. Does anyone have suggestions on what might be wrong or how I can forcefully reformat it? TYSM!165Views0likes1CommentUSB flash drive showing no media in disk management
I’m having a really frustrating issue with one of my USB flash drives. When I plug it into my computer, it shows up as a removable drive under “This PC.” But when I try to open it, it just says “Please insert a disk into USB drive”. So I went into disk management to check, and there it shows as “Removable” but with No Media. There’s no file system, no partition, nothing. It also shows 0 bytes capacity. Unfortunately, I have some important files on there that I really need. 😨 Does this mean the USB is dead?

I've been struggling to get Windows 10 installed onto a new SSD I put into my old Dell XPS desktop. I made a bootable USB drive, but it kept going back to the beginning of the process over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. No one told me that you must take the USB drive out. I'm sorry, but I cannot read minds. I didn't know that. Finally, my son found a video on YouTube telling me that. So, at the appropriate time we removed it and FINALLY I was able to complete the process. Now, I've got a HECK of a lot of Windows.Old (x) folders. Can I just get into File Explorer, highlight the bunch and press delete? I've tried, three times, to use the Disk Cleanup utility. It wouldn't delete those Windows.Old (x) folders. So, how do I get rid of them?Solved3KViews0likes1Comment
