I actually first split my drives into 2 partitions (Partition 1 - 874 GB Partition 2 - 40 GB) using Acronis Disk Director but it took a lot of time , even after more than 12 hrs (left overnight , plugged in ) there wasn't any progress (while Acronis was trying to merge volumes),
I had to access my laptop back again so I left it off in battery mode then and let it get discharged. When I opened the laptop the initial loading screen showed disk error and it started scanning and repairing it.I reached the Automatic Repair Screen, but it didn't work , and so I clicked the option which said "start Windows 10" . The disk looked absolutely fine with 2 partitions but I merged those 2 partitions again since I thought that disk error will go away. While merging , I got disk errors again and I lost 40 GB (This is the space of Partition 2) of my space. And the thing is that 40 GB isn't even unallocated, it is like hidden.
I have tried running chkdsk command to fix errors but still no luck.
Please help.
*Ignore the space used up by Recovery Drive in the image*
Disk Management shows only 874 GB at top and 914 GB below. And in "My Computer/This PC" it shows only 873 GB usable space which should actually be 914 GB like before.
*The D drive was orginally 914 GB which I split into 874 GB and 40 GB , giving D drive 873 GB and E drive 40 GB , while merging it back again I lost 40 GB and for some reason E drive still remains and E drive is now using 26 MB space.
