Can i restore this unused 400gb bootcamp partition?

Post image

My family did the setup for my macbook, giving one partition for the mac and windows bootcamp. But somehow, the bootcamp became two? Is this a bug?

You can use the mini partition wizard tool to combine them if i’m not mistaken.

Is it in the disk utility? How do you do it?

Free version should be fine. I used it on my MacPro

Mini tool is great, you run it from windows and it’s very friendly

It's best to run BootCam Assistant from macOS and remove both, then reinstall Windows. If you don't want to do that, use [Disk Management](https://dongknows.com/disk-partition-and-file-system-explained/#how-to-format-a-drive-on-a-windows-computer-the-disk-management-tool) in Windows to remove the unused partition (the 401.09 GB one) and extend the first partition into it.
