📌Method 1: Create a New Partition Using Disk Management
Built into Windows, Disk Management is a utility that enables you to undertake storage-related tasks like creating and formatting hard disk partitions, extending or shrinking a volume, and changing a drive letter.
Before playing around with the Windows partition, it is highly recommended that you make a backup. Here’s how to run Disk Management to create a new partition in Windows 10/11:

◾Right-click This PC and select Manage. Open Disk Management.
◾Select the disk from which you want to make a partition. If unallocated space is not available, then right-click on the disk drive and choose Shrink Volume. In the new window, specify the size of the new partition and click on Shrink.
◾Right-click the unallocated partition and choose New Sample Volume. In the welcome window, click Next, specify the volume size and click Next. Then assign a new letter to the new partition and click on Next.
◾Set File system to NTFS and Allocation unit size to Default. Type the volume name in the Volume label field, and click Next. Carefully review the settings, and click Finish to start formatting. That’s it!

📌Method 2: Create a New Partition Using 4DDiG Partition Manager

Next, assign a drive letter to the new partition, set its file system as NTFS, FAT32, or exFAT, etc and click ok. Finally, hit execute 1 task and click Ok.
