    Do others also think that Edge uses much more RAM in 1703 than in 1607. Had some tabs open and was shocked how much Ram was used.

    dear ,

    kindly guide as i have installed dual boot of redstone 2 and now i am short of hard disk space and want to resize partitions.
    can i delete the 16 MB partition shown above safely to resize ? 16MB is fully used but i cant see the files in it , i have apprehension that redstone 2 might fail to boot if i delete it , kindly guide.

    If you delete that then your windows won't boot up. Also 16MB is so small it not going to benefit you

    no , after deleting 16 MB , you can see that i can merge and resize nearby partitions to create more space on redstone..
    why will my windows not boot ? whats in that 16 MB partition do you know?

    Create a backup and see what happens when you delete it. To me I never attempted to delete it.

    Minitool partition is classified as 3rd party as it not made by Microsoft

    Why do you not move it to the end with your partition tool to be sure
