Built-in disk management is pretty limited. I would recommend MiniTool Partition Wizard:

Thank you!!

Finally did the partitioning as well. Thank you!!

In my experience, when I installed the new Windows 10 on a laptop I tried to make into a gaming machine to take with me on a trip. the problem was that for some reason my disk space after the new installation, despite me meking sure it's clean, was cramped with duplicate files that I was absolutely sure I removed. My guess is that formatting wasn't done properly and I failed to check it. I had to remove those files, including dead system files, manually.
Still, it was an adventure. When it happened on my wife's Mac, we just did a factory reset and forgot about it. With Windows, it's always nice to learn something new.
