Click Start > Rt Click on Computer > Select Manage
In the left pane, under Storage category, click on Disk Management
Now select and rt click on the partition you wish to modify.
In the context menu, you will see options to Extend, Shrink or Delete the partition. Select the option you want. Sometimes one or more options may be grayed out and thus unavailable. It could be that such a step may be physically not possible.

Yes, you can use the 'New Partition' function to create a new partition in blank space on disk.

This function can create partitions, delete them, and extend them.
