I have Ubuntu 15.10 with Windows in different partitions. While installing Ubuntu the following were declared:

  • swap space: 65 GB
  • ext4 - /home: 2 Gb
  • ext4 - /: 200 GB

The Root Partition or My Computer in Ubuntu Shows 187 GB of Free Space. I am unable to create Folder.

The Home partition has only 1.4 GB of Free space. How would I be able to use the 200 GB partition for storing files( Create Folder Etc. ) I wish to increase the space in the Home Directory?

  • 65 GB is way more swap space than you probably need. 1½–2 times the size of main memory should be enough. Mar 20, 2016 at 9:29

Get gparted but if you want to change size of partition in which ubuntu is installed then you have to make live USB/disk then boot ubuntu from this live USB/disk then open gparted and change the size of any drive you want. You have to use live USB/disk becuase you have to unmount the drive in which you want to make changes.
