In short, I was trying to run Windows games on Ubuntu. It didn’t work, and now I’m stuck with a problem. My disk layout is messed up—can’t expand the game storage partition anymore. I keep seeing the error “the size of the extent is less than the minimum.” I’d like everything back to one partition, but I’m not sure how. The EFI from Ubuntu won’t change either. If I have to reformat everything, it might be necessary since it’s just Steam Storage. I’d rather avoid that. With my slow internet, it could take years to get everything updated. Do you have any idea how to fix this situation? Also, I changed the boot order in BIOS back to Windows, but that doesn’t seem to help.
