I'm planning to use gparted to move a(the?) OEM partition created by Windows 10 to the end of the disk. The disk looks like:

win 10 disk partitions

Can the OEM partition be safely moved to the end of the disk?

I tried it earlier with gparted and there were gaps of unallocated space in between the OS (C:) partition and the newly moved free partition at the end. Can these spaces be used so that the OS partition is contiguous up until the start of the OEM partition?

You can actually delete and do everything using diskpart.exe via your CMD:

  • Launch cmd.exe as administrator (right-click "Launch as administrator")
  • Type diskpart.exe (then Enter)
  • Type: list disk then select disk <id_of_your_disk>
  • Then list volume or list partition and select volume(or partition) <id_of_your_volume_or_partition>
  • Now you can do anything; type help if you need some help
  • IF YOUR PARTITON OR VOLUME IS PROTECTED: : ex to delete selected partition delete partition override , but be sure it's backed up
