I had a 1Tb SSD in my device, made a multiboot Linux/Windows and used it for a while.
But soon I discovered that my linux distro didn't need the assigned 100gb or something space,
So I shortened it and wanted to assign it to my data drive (D: from the windows installation.
Sadly the so generated unallocated partion had to be moved infront of the D: Drive, therfore, I searched a tool online to help me do that.
Windows doesn't seem to support that.
Tried it with the first tool which I found, where a lot of people seemed to be able to move partitions.
Well, long story short:
Window's didn't boot anymore, Linux didn't eighter...
I thought that most likely the bootloader was trashed during the move.
So I booted from a Linux USB to try and copy the stuff down. But, while my C: Drive does show up, with all the data (no bitlocker). But no D: Drive /:
When I tried to install a new Linux over the old Linux Distros partitions it showed in the partioning/ formating step my 800Gb drive as free space or unallocated Space.
****... Stuff might still be there, but not registered anymore.
Does anyone have an idea, what I could do?
