I have tried some other questions about extending root partitions but they haven't worked for me. Is there any possible way that I can shrink my home partition and extend my root partition with the extra free space?enter image description here

    Note the PADLOCK symbols, you can't resize partitions whilst they are in-use. Me I'd just delete the swap, re-size as you want, then re-create the swap later. UUIDs on the new swap will differ, but that's easily corrected (or you can use a swapfile instead & just comment out the partition references.. depending on your unstated release) – guiverc Feb 07 '21 at 00:36
  • You're really lucky that the swap partition is adjacent to the root partition. Swap partitions are over-rated in the modern distros and more plentiful RAM. You could do exactly as guiverc says. – mondotofu Feb 07 '21 at 03:28
  • Thanks for the help. I was able to fix my issue by booting with a usb and "trying ubuntu". From there I used gparted to resize partitions. – ArjunSahlot Feb 07 '21 at 21:01
