Hi, I partitioned off my hard drive and then put it back as 1 big drive but now windows will not recognize the extra 20GB. It says I have got 83GB on my C drive, when it should be 111GB. I have tried using the programme to restore the lost 20GB and it says that it does it but windows want see the extra 20GB. What can I do to get this back?
