Extend the partition which i installed zorin on it(swap,boot,root in one)

i install zorin lite beside windows, windows in partition c and zorin in anther partition(root,swap,boot in one partition, i didn't customize that ) i want to extend that partition without losing data. i plan to get 20g from windows partition(win file system) to zorin file system, i try gparted from live usb zorin, but resize for my zorin filesystem can't have option to increase but just decrease.

In order to increase a partition into another, they must be adjacent to each other. Side by side.
If reclaiming space from Windows, you must defrag Windows, first.


sorry i can't understand, but that is gparted, i can resize with decrease partition c which has windows system eaisly with gparted and get unlocated space free , and i can resize the partition which has zorin but the problem is just resize with decrease not increase

The Zorin Partition is not touching the partition you are trying to resize it into. There is a 1 megabyte unallocated gap between it and sda3.
