Hi,


From what I've found so far, it doesn't look like Window's Disk Management GUI supports the function to merge two non-adjacent paritions. For example, I am not able to merge the 105.94 GB of Unallocated space to C Drive; the extend volume option is greyed out. (see screenshot)


I have come across suggestions of using third-party software such as EaseUS to solve this problem (Windows 10 cannot extend unallocated drive volume).


However, I'd rather put my trust in windows native features for important operations such as this. So I am wondering why doesn't windows support this function natively? Because this seems like a vey basic/important feature.


Is it because of lack of demand/priorities or is it because this is a operation is (super) risky/dangerous? if the latter, could you elaborate on the potential risks and what to what out for?
