This article will tell how to add free space to C drive partition without formatting hard disk on Windows computer.
Data can be stored on a partition when it has enough free space. If a partition does not have sufficient free space but you want to save data to it, you need to either format the disk or delete files to free up space, or you need to repartition the hard disk to reallocate disk space.
If you use the free partition software IM-Magic Partition Resizer, you can reallocate disk space without formatting or repartitioning the hard disk. With this free software, you can allocate free space to the C drive system partition or any other partition that is running low on disk space.
