As I mentioned in a previous question, I'm trying to shrink my primary hard drive to split it into another partition. I'm getting the following message as a result.
The last unmovable file appears to be:
\$BadClus:$Bad:$DATA
Is there any way to move this?
Answer
Windows has certain files that are unmovable while you are booted into the OS, I would try defragging and compacting the files by connecting the hard drive to another PC and running a complete defrag of the offline drive. Then put it back in the original PC and try the shrink again.
Another method to use is a third party partitioning tool from a boot disk.
