Modify encrypted partition's size

ADINES

Hi everyone,

I have to change encrypted (Sophos endpoint security & data protection) partition's size in my laptop and  I'm afraid from data loss.

Is it possible or I have to disable encryption before that or it's not possible at all ?

Thank you;

    It's not possible at all.  I'm pretty sure you'd end up bricking the PC if you try to change the size.  Heck, resizing a partition on even an unencrypted drive is dangerous and could result in loss.  The safest, and really only way to go about it is to decrypt and uninstall Sophos, reboot, then do your resize and reinstall.
