50No Usable Free Extent Could be Found Diskpart FIX [Tutorial]
The error ‘No usable free extent could be found’ pops up when you are trying to create a partition using the DiskPart utility. This could if the disk on which you are trying to create a partition isn’t being recognized by the Windows or insufficient space on the drive as the error message suggests. The DiskPart utility, previously known as fdisk, is a command-line interface that lets you partition your hard drive. However, the errors prompted within the utility are often hard to deal with as, like we mentioned above, it is a command-line interface and doesn’t come with that GUI that we are accustomed to.
Nonetheless, don’t worry as in this tutorial, we are going to go through the causes of the issue and later on mention some solutions that you can apply to, hopefully, isolate your issue.
Well, the possible causes of the error message are pretty clear as they are mentioned in the error message itself. There are:
Insufficient Space: Well, this error can occur as there might not be enough space on the disk that you want to create partition on. In such a case, what you can do is check the available space on the drive and then create a partition accordingly.
Unrecognized Disk: Another cause of this error might be that Windows is not able to recognize the disk properly meaning that Windows can’t write to the device that you are trying to create partition on.
