version 2014 oem - move Win10 to another larger disk
Hi, i need help to understand why after i've cloned my old ssd (120GB) with win10 to another one that is larger (500gb), i've got two partitions:the first one naturally is a perfect copy and the second one is defined as"restore partition" but is unuseful. it is not a logical drive, without a drive letter so i can?t use it. so now i've got my new 500GB ssd with the first partition of 120 GB and the second one of about 380GB unserviceable. what did i do wrong?
i'd like to have just only one larger partition of 500GB because Win10 need more space.
thanks
claudio

Hi Steve, many thanks for your help. Unfortunatly situation is not good. cloning this way has created a problem not only of space on the disk but much worse my Windows 10 online account with microsoft was lost. I mean my pc was not more recognized by Microsoft. after that i did so many things that i do not remember, the final result was terrible. I created a migration file on a second disk then i tried to reinstall W10 from that disk to the new one but something went wrong (maybe i choose the wrong drive letter or what else) and i've lost everything in the "d" drive.
Now i've got W10 brand new in "C" and my WindowsImagebackup in "D" and am waiting for a helping hand by Microsoft the rescue everything from my previous installation.
At least my drive "C" now has only one partition of 490 GB.
Have a nice day,
Claudio
