It says something about maybe messing up my boot, just wont to be sure I will have no issues. 100 Gigs should be good for Win10 right?

If you're going to shrink a Windows partition you should do it from within Windows. Don't touch the 500MB partition, that's the boot loader.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please聽馃え

Best to use a Windows-based tool聽for that instead of gparted, like MiniTool partition wizard.

If I can't touch the boot, no point. Wonder why it didn't put boot first?
