Partitioning Woes

You can use diskpart from command prompt to remove the letter D as recovery shouldn't have a letter.

Code:

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> diskpart

Microsoft DiskPart version 10.0.16299.15

On computer: X201

DISKPART> select volume D

Volume 2 is the selected volume.

DISKPART> remove

DiskPart successfully removed the drive letter or mount point.

DISKPART> exit

Wonderful! I'll do this as soon as I can! Thank you.

And, thank you, cereberus, for your MiniTool suggestion. I'll investigate further.

lx07...diskpart was an easy and quick solution to a vexing woe. Many, many thanks. This was really simple and fast.

cereberus...I found MiniTool Partition Magic a bit confusing at first because there's no easy way to find "shrink" in the command structure. But once I caught on, it worked just great. I think all is well. But here is the image of the completed actions. Please let me know if you find any cautions, worries, pitfalls.

And THANK YOU for recommending a tool that did exactly what I needed. Gracias! Merci! Danke!
