By shrinking the existing drives or volumes by using the in-built shrinking feature through Disk Management, the user can create a new drive or volume to place their important data or information separately. The user can also use the newly-created drive or volume to keep backup system files and to use multiple operating systems.

Then click on OK tab.
Step2: To shrink the particular disk partition you want, select it and then right-click on it and select "shrink volume".
After clicking on the "shrink volume" option, "Shrink E:" Window will appear on the screen. Just enter the amount of space you want to shrink in MB and click on the Shrink button.
Enter the Size of disk which you want to shrink.
After shrinking Volume, Space will show in unallocated partition, so that you can create new partition.
