Unable to resize the partition because the disk was locked in Ubuntu 18.X

Question

I tried to resize the partition using GParted, and it didnt work because it's being used by system.

Someone said that i need to do the GParted in a live CD, so i made a Ubuntu Installer into a USB using rufus. I also changed the boot priority in BIOS to boot the USB stick first. But i am unable to enter the live CD installer. It just keep appear the grub menu which show which OS should i use, Ubuntu or Windows.

How could i resize the ubuntu partition in proper way ?

EDIT

I got this when try to enter UEFI: USB using teh ESC key.

EDIT 2

Try hitting Esc key as soon the laptop starts. This might provide you a menu. See which key is supposed to open Boot device options. — Kulfy, Jan 01 '19 at 09:49

Why don't you try to go to boot menu in your laptop. From there you can easily boot through your USB stick.

To enter into boot menu in Asus laptop, you have to press 'escape' key 5-10 times as you turn your laptop on.
