Generally, C drive is the default partition for saving data and program which are expected to be found by the operating system while starting Windows 8 system. When your C drive disk space is insufficient, the Windows 8 system can not work as normal. Meanwhile, the update, program installations and defragment of windows 8 can not continue. So, extending C drive of Windows 8 is absolutely necessary for the sake of the maximization of windows 8 performance and making full use of disk space.

For example, if you want to extend C drive, you have to delete the partition that behind C. Therefore, free partition manager- AOMEI Partition Assistant Standard Edition is the best assistant helps you extend C drive without damaging any data or deleting partition.
