I have Ubuntu installed and Windows 10 also on a 1TB HDD, 900G for Windows and 100G for Ubuntu, because I run out of space and Windows 10 is broken and does not work

I want to remove the partition from Windows 10 and give all available space to Ubuntu

for this I will use Partition Magic

    Please, you could translate (using an online translator, if you feel more comfortable with it) by yourself and then [edit] your question. You can keep the original Spanish question alongside the English one. – Lorenz Keel Oct 14 '20 at 06:40
  • Partition Magic is a tool focused on Windows. Don’t stick to it if you want to leave Windows. GParted is your new Partition Magic! – Melebius Oct 14 '20 at 06:51

With gparted, delete the partition corresponding to MS Windows and create a new one in ext4 format, do not delete UEFI partitions if any, only the one from MS Windows.

Then move your / home to this partition.

Suppose de new home is /dev/sda3

Open a terminal and run:

exec sudo -i
mkdir /media/hometemp
mount /dev/sda3 /media/hometemp
cd /home
cp -ax . /media/hometemp
cd /
mv /home /home.old
mkdir /home
umount /dev/sda3
mount /dev/sda3 /home
exit

If everything works, add the UUID in /etc/fstab to /dev/sda3.

exec sudo -i
blkid /dev/sda3
gedit /etc/fstab

You must add the lines at the bottom of the file to mount your new /home directory

Type the UUUI of the partition at the start of the line, (UUID= sda3 UUID) and then press Tab.

Type the mount point, /home,  and press Tab.


Type the filesystem description ext4, and press Tab.


Type defaults for the mount options, and press Tab.


Type the digit 0 for the filesystem dump option, and press Tab.


Type the digit 0 for the filesystem check option.

Save the fstab file, close Gedit and reboot.

Once you’re perfectly sure that you no longer need the safety copy of your old /home directory, you can delete it:

cd /
sudo rm -rf home.old/

  • Sorry, but I did it now,in another medium, and I expanded the / partition Because if I use 800g for /home, 100g is for programs and libraries – Canal PC Oct 27 '20 at 15:27
