Please help me recover a disc segment and partition on my hdd
Windows 10 ver 20H2
Hello! This is my first post and I'm excited to be here. I could really use your help.
I have just upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10. I have also reset my pc without keeping any personal files which means this is a good time to sort this out as don't mind going as far as reinstalling Windows if necessary.
I have a laptop sold with a 320gb hdd. I have had it for quite some time and after upgrading to windows 10 I noticed something quite odd. There appears to be 25gb sectioned off somewhere that I don't appear to have access to. I'm not sure how this happened (The only thing that comes to mind is I remember many years ago trying out virtual machines). At any rate I do not have a lot of internal space and would like to fix this.
What I would like to do is recover the 25gb segment and have one d: drive of 200gb for personal files with the rest going to the C: drive OS.
I understand there might be difficulties with the placement? I don't really understand this stuff. I am willing to download third party software if it is free and am looking forward to any suggestions.
Please see screenshot (the game drive is used to back up my data externally).
