How can I fix my Windows partition space issue?

I just built my first gaming PC and set up Windows with a 50 GB partition, but now I realize that's not nearly enough space. I tried to reinstall Windows, but it just boots up the existing installation. What should I do to get more space on my Windows partition?

If you're on a fresh drive, you can boot from the Windows installer. There you'll have the option to remove all partitions completely, which will let you start over with a new, larger partition. Just remember this will delete all your data, so make sure to back up anything important first!

You can extend your partition using Windows Disk Manager. Just search for 'Disk Management' in the Start menu, right-click on your Windows partition, and select 'Extend Volume'. Follow the prompts, and you'll get more space easily!
