Windows 10 Disk Management

Hello

I have a problem with Windows 10 disk management.

My 1Tb hybrid hard drive is getting full and I noticed that there is a 20Gb Healthy (Recovery Partition).

After checking some websites I assumed that this had been provided by the OEM (Asus).

I converted it to Unallocated Space and attempted to merge with Healthy (Primary Partition).

The Unallocated Space “disappeared” but there was no increase in size of any other partitions.

How can I recover this Unallocated Space?

Regards

Hello DaveM121

Thanks for your quick reply.

Here is the current screenshot. Unfortunately I didn't get one before the incident but basically it showed a 20Gb healthy partition on the right of disk 0.
