Many PC manufacturers will divide the hard drives into two partitions for better management: one for the Windows system and another for your personal files. And if you search for what you should do after buying a new hard drive, the internet will recommend creating partitions for different data types.

If you don't need to categorize your files and increasing the C drive's space is your first priority, I will teach you how to undo the partitions. However, combining all my partitions into one is a big challenge, especially using Disk Management and Diskpart. Don't worry. EaseUS Partition Master will cover you in merging and deleting partitions.

You can merge partitions till there is only one partition on your hard drive with EaseUS Partition Master as follows:

Note: Deleting partitions may cause important data loss, so a backup for the whole hard drive for recovery is advised. 

Step 1. Right-click on the partition that will remain, and click "Merge" to select the partition next to it. Hit "OK" to ensure.

Step 2. Select "Execute Task" > "Apply" to execute the partition merge process.

Or, you don't have to merge all partitions as one to create unallocated space. EaseUS Partition Master has an "Allocate Space" to allocate free space from other partitions without deleting partitions. Furthermore, whether the two partitions are contiguous or non-adjacent, this tool can be applied. Find more details in the following article:
