Move unallocated space between C: and D:

I have a 1 TB hard drive that is split with C: and D:   C: is almost full but D: is mostly empty. Is there a way I can move some of the unallocated space from D: to C:

Thanks

Hi

Resizing is possible.

It does take a long time (coupla hours).

I would back up the small amounts of data on D: on a small usb drive based on OP report that D: is mostly empty, then delete the volume of D: so D: becomes unallocated.  Next crucial prerequisite: there must be no other partition sandwiched between C: and D: partition in disk management.

If that is true, OP can extend C: to include all the space of D:

use Windows' built-in Disk Management(diskmgmt.msc) to add adjacent unallocated space by right-clicking the partition and selecting Extend Volume
