You asked about moving everything onto a single drive after using an F: partition for a 64-bit Windows installation. You want to know if reducing the size of the F: partition allows you to restore the C: drive. This is relevant for Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit, and you're curious if expanding C: is possible afterward.

Yes, it's possible. Remember to focus on reducing the F: drive usage.

Only issues arise when the system is active. You can minimize problems with partitions while using a live CD.

Thanks! I think it's a good idea to power off your USB drive.

When discussing a Linux Live CD, avoid mentioning it. Windows tends to be stubborn and resists changes, particularly when updates occur unexpectedly. For a Windows repair or installation CD, that would likely be a more suitable option.

Both options function well when you don't need terminal access, though installing the CD is likely the top recommendation at first.
