Removed Kubuntu without uninstalling it right, now have unallocated partition to merge with DATA (D:)
Posted: 05 Apr 2023, 12:18
I had installed Kubuntu, and I do not remember how I removed it but it was not the correct way as I have corrupted Linux files when analysing my drive with TestDisk.
I am not very informed on these things, so I'm not 100% sure how to use TestDisk.
I made a 195 GB partition for Kubuntu when going through installation, and since I removed Kubuntu, that partition has been unallocated and I cannot make a new simple volume with it, as it claims there is not enough space on the partition to make it.
I would like to make it a NTFS, healthy partition that I can then merge with my other partition on the drive to give myself a lot more space.
I do not quite understand what the partition characteristics mean, especially deleted. If you could inform me in your reply, that would be great!
This might be the unallocated partition in question that is unrecoverable but I cannot tell.
This is after analysis. I cannot list the files of the linux filesys. data partition as it is corrupted.
