Hello. I have an nvme ssd that windows installed on and its divided onto 2 partitions, one of them i formatted and tried to merge the 2 partitions together but Windows Disk Manager wouldnt allot me to. The Extend Volume option is greyed out tho i have unallocated volume. How to overcome this problem and add the unallocated volume to the C partition? Thanks in advance.

Consider using an external partitioning utility like Minitool Partition Wizard. Afterward, relocate the recovery partition to the drive’s end and adjust the size of the C: partition/volume.

@Tan3l6 mentioned that the unused area must be directly next to the C drive so the selection is possible.

To avoid third-party utilities, simply remove the required third partition—this isn't essential for normal operation but is useful for recovery mode. You can do this with DiskPart, the command-line disk management tool, and after that, you'll be able to expand the partition table.

I remember using EaseUS Partition Master for that. It might have been another free partition utility from a while ago. You’ll probably need a third-party solution, but there are options available at no cost.
