How do you extend C: partition of Windows Server 2022? (piefed.social)

Windows Server 2022 creates one recovery partition just on the right of the C: partition. So, when it is required to expand the C: partition it is impossible due to this recovery partition. I realised of this problem because our IT department provides Windows Server virtual machines users are unable to expand.

I would like to know how are you dealing with this problem. Do you remove the recovery partition? Do you keep the recovery partition? how?

why do you still use BIOS instead of EFI? For any particular reason? VMware recommends EFI for Windows Server 2022. Our Window Server 2022 template is EFI.

Ah, its just legacy servers. Any newer have been built with UEFI for a while now.
