Greetings @Victus50 

 

Welcome to the HP Forum.

 

That could be a tough one to get done without messing up the Recovery Partition (not recommended).

 

You might be able to non-destructively do this using professional disk partitioning software which costs money.

 

I mess around with Macrorit Partition Expert free. I have never checked to see if you could move the Recovery Partition when it exists between the C: drive and unallocated space. 

 

Macrorit also has a free partition extender at the above site. Never tried this software.

 

Regards
