I tried the AOMEI program. It was simple and fast. Worked beautifully for a retired truck driver.

1st method worked (thank goodness), a simple task that I can just google but I don't mind watching this, makes it easier to understand with your explanation, thanks, man

My C drive was 240 GB, I cloned it over to a 1 TB ssd, the first part of this video gave me the rest of my unallocated space. Thank you!

Thank you for this video. I was a big help to me as I was trying to clone an existing SSD to a larger SSD. I ran into some issues with the WB Acronis software (it duplicated the size of the partition on the older, smaller SSD, so I couldn't see the extra space on the larger SSD in explorer). This video helped me fix it. Thank you!

As you stated in the comments, EaseUS is not free for this feature. I used MiniTool, which is free and it worked exactly the same way. Click on the drive, drag the BIOS partition to the end, slide the main partition over to the unallocated space, click go, takes 2 minutes. Thanks for the tutorial :) Got a new 2T EVO 860 integrated into the laptop with no issues.

You can no longer do this with the free version it asks to activate to complete task

I just cloned a hard drive and it gave me multiple partitions so plan A didn't work. I downloaded the free version of that disk-partition program you mentioned in the description. It doesn't work the same as the program in this video (of course). In this program you "Merge Partitions" and select them. Worked great for me. Thanks for the video.

[DanaLeeGibson]

The Disk Management and the other software you suggested do not work. BOTH seem to want the unallocated space to be next to the main partition.

Worked like a charm. Thank you I learned something new today.
