Unallocated Disk Space after Recovery

[therottweiler]

I performed a system recovery to factory settings that resulted in my Disk space being distributed differently than before. I have a lot of unallocated space as you can see bellow. I need to know how to fix and how to prevent this from happening the next time I perform a recovery. Also, is it normal for the RECOVERY (D) partition to show multiple times in Disk Management ?

Thanks.

Hi,

You can extend the C partition into the 'unallocated space' as follows.

Once again, hold down the Windows Key and press R.  Into the Run Box type compmgmt.msc and hit enter.  Click Disk Management in the left pane and let the drives load up.

In the lower graphical view of the partitions, right click the C partition and select 'Extend Volume'.

In the following window, click Next.

In the next window, using the 'Select the amount of space in Mb' make sure that this is showing the same figure as the 'Maximum available space in Mb' figure that is listed just above ( adjust it if necessary ).

Then click on Next and click on Finish.

This may take a few minutes to complete.

Regards,
