Yesterday, I was wondering how to shrink my "C" drive. I watched few YouTube videos for information. According to the instructions, I opened the "Disk Management" to shrink my C drive. I saw 5 partition there, but when I open "My Computer" I get only two drive. C and Recovery. I don't know what's wrong with it. If someone knows about it, please help!

I am not sure..

But just right click on them and delete those drives which are not showing from the same place.

After deletion you will able to see them in unallocated space at the bottom, now again right click on it and click on 'New simple volume' and create drive using that option.. you can give whatever name you want to give... After the end of the process you might able to see them on My Computer.

@AKP
Should I delete those partitions or those are system partitions. See one of those(the third one from the top) even used some space but still not showing up on "My Computer". I am afraid, if I delete any one of those, my system may not work properly. What you say?

Well, windows only have one partition as system partition where windows installed. And that should be your C drive. So
I don't think you will face any problem in that. Deleting it will only make it as unallocated space and you can use that space for creating another drive...

I have one partition which is having nothing on it still it shows it have used some space. So don't worry sometime it shows like that.

I am wondering at so many system drive perhaps some are manufacturers drive partitions which used to store os files.

Agreed, other drives are your choice and created at the time of installation of OS so these could not be coming as part of the system. These are your choices according to your requirement.

I don't think so.. There is C drive which include OS files and there is also recovery drive.. No other drive need to store any other system file.. So other drives are temporary one which didn't get any name or located properly.
