I made a mistake assigning 38 GB instead of the intended 120 GB for software testing. There seems to be no direct option in the disk management tool to reclaim that space, but you might try deleting the entry and then resetting the drive or using a recovery method if available. If you'd like, I can walk you through the steps for your specific system.

Reduce one partition and then enlarge the other (by clicking the partitions with the right mouse button)

Disk 0 isn't showing as the main partition anymore—check if it's still recognized and try reinstalling the OS or using recovery tools.
