Can't access unallocated disk space

  • 772

enter image description here

I had two OSes, I tried to delete Windows and keep the Ubuntu.

I tried to delete my Windows partition to have some extra space in my Ubuntu drive. After deleting the partition for the Windows I can't use that space. That is still showing unallocated when ever I am trying to access that it's not happening.

dual-boot partitioning gparted unallocated

  1. To use that unallocated space, you can create a new partition from that (right-click on it).

    Or you could extend the other partition (sda6 in your case) using the Resize/Move option.

  2. If you have installed your Ubuntu with LVM, you could create an extra partition and add that to the LVM volume or you can boot you computer with a gparted live cd/usb and resize you partition the gui way.
