Download Link / Website:

Partition Wizard Home Edition

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 :)

When your job involves working on a computer, repetitive actions can be the bane of your existence. They're not only tedious, but also (even worse) time consuming. Fortunately, in case you're forced to execute the exact same actions over and over again, you can create macros (scripts) that will automatically do them for you. Let's say, for example, that every day you have to open your downloads folder; to do this, you would normally have to click on 'Start', then on 'Documents' and from there finally click on 'Downloads'. Using a macro, you could simply run a certain file from your desktop or (even better) use a key combination, and the download folder will be automatically opened.
