Hello there! I encountered a trouble while using Disk Management. I was trying to delete my E drive to transfer the space to the D drive, but the Delete Volume option was greyed out in Disk Management. Why can't I delete E drive? Is there any other way to delete a partition on the disk? Thanks in advance!

There are multiple reasons why you can't delete the E drive:
Thus, you need assistance from a professional disk and partition manager to delete the E drive. EaseUS Partition Master Free contains everything you need for the entire process.
First, you should create a bootable USB drive of EaseUS Partition Master:
Step 1. Insert the USB drive into your PC and open EaseUS Partition Master.
Step 2. Go to the "Bootable Media" tab and select your USB drive. Then, click "Create" to make it a bootable media.
Step 3. Now, you can boot your PC from the USB drive.
Then, you can delete the E drive in WinPE.
Step 1. Launch EaseUS Partition Master, right-click on the E drive, and select "Delete."
Step 2. Click "Execute * Task" and "Apply" to start the process.
