Resizing partitions in a Dual Boot

[Iron_Man 2,376]

My laptop has dual boot with windows 11 and Ubuntu 20.04. At the beginning, I allotted around 400gb to Ubuntu, during its installation. Now for installing Warzone in my laptop, I don't have enough space, in windows.

I tried installing wine and lutris to run Warzone in Ubuntu but on a general scale, wine greatly reduces my Laptop's performance. Upon that, it didn't work either.

I know the regular way to resize the partitions. Boot into a live usb(Ubuntu), install GParted in the live system and do the changes. I've already done the this once.

I want to know if there's any Linux chap out there who knows a way to do the same but without a live usb, since I don't have one right now and kinda lazy to make one

So do you know a credible way to pull that off?

From the start why you gave Ubuntu 400GB ? Wasn't it better to give it also the full GBs of your laptop?

Making a live usb/pendrive isn't that big of a deal. Just basics any linux user would know.

That's not always a good solution. Been trying but most of the solutions i get usually damage data, cause data loss.

No, as I needed Windows in my laptop as well. My laptop came with 512 gigabytes of storage. I didn't want to lose Windows as I might need it in future, which is why I allotted 400 gigabytes to ubuntu and the rest to windows.

My post was sarcastic. Also I thought you have one tera, but you surprised me when you gave ubuntu 400/512, it was just too much. I assume that you are using ubuntu for testing - entertaining not a real heavy usage. When I tested ubuntu, I haven't gave it that much.

BTW, I couldn't help you because I don't know much about such a things.
