Supporting the extension of partitions
You're facing an issue where the unallocated space appears on the left side of your partition, but your system won't boot from the Ubuntu live USB. Try checking the partition layout in Disk Management or using a tool like `fdisk` to verify the location. Also, ensure the live USB is properly inserted and that you're using the correct installation media.
