Let say you have 91.75GB (C: drive 20GB while D: drive 71.75GB)
Suddenly you wish to increase your C: drive to 30GB but you don't want to format your PC.
Well you don't have to..
Windows Vista / Windows 7
1) Start -> Run -> type in 'Diskmgmt.msc' and press Enter.
2) Right click any of your drive and choose either 'Expand Volume' or 'Shrink Volume'
3) Enter your desired size to shrink or expand, and Windows will do the rest for you.
You may need to shrink one of your drives before you could expand the other. You'll also need to have enough free space on that particular drive (defragged) to be able to 'shrink' :)
You may also use the software introduced below too.
Windows XP
You will need to download 3rd party software for this, luckily here's a free one: Partition Wizard Home Edition(Supports Windows Vista/7 as well). It is a very powerful software with lots of features. I haven't tried it myself but it received quite a number of positive reviews for it's simplicity and usability.
Please leave your comments here if you manage to try it :)

How to install Bash on Windows 11

Microsoft’s Windows Subsystem for Linux 2 was released nearly 3 years ago. This brought the ability to run the Bash shell and run Linux binary executables that you’d be able to run on Ubuntu Linux. Microsoft has since only continued to improve its Windows Subsystem for Linux, and an update in a Windows 10 preview build back in mid-2020 made it easier to install Bash. That method carried over to Windows 11. To install Bash, open Windows Terminal as an admin. You can do this by right-clicking the Windows icon and selecting “Windows Terminal (Admin)” from the power user menu. (If you’re on Windows 10, you may see it listed as “Windows Powershell (Admin)” in the menu.)

It will also download Ubuntu, but will install it after a reboot. This pro

How to Deal With Your Drivers Issues

For those of you who are really new to this, drivers are software that make the connection between your hardware (motherboard, graphic cards, sound card, printer, etc) and your operating system. Each hardware component has its own driver (which works on specific Windows versions), and if you don't have the correct driver installed, the respective device will either run incorrectly or not run at all. So, after you've reinstalled Windows (or installed it for the first time), you are going to need drivers to make your computer fully operational. The first and easiest solution is to install them is by using the CDs that came along with your hardware. If that's no longer possible because the respective CD is no longer available or the drivers on it aren't compatible with your Windows version, you will have to  improvise . My favorite solution in this situation is to use a combination of two programs: 3DP Net and 3DP Chip. Both of them are completely free and require
