I am going to do it tonight and with the info you gave me I would take the below steps then:
1. Backup everything on my LL
2. Login to Windows 10 and defragment the Windows drive (all C drive in my case)
3. Shrink the Win drive via windows DM
4. Leave the free space unpartitioned
5. Go to LL using my LL installation drive and head to Use LL without installation
6. Go to GParted and add the unpartitioned space to my /home
Does that sound like the right thing to do?
Thanks again
Since its home (separate parition) - you should be able to do within the LL OS (not install) - thru the sane methods using gparted.. I'd have to look but gparted maybe able to expand the partition without having to completely wipe it and redo....
*you'll probably just need to unmount it prior to resizing - gparted should have that option else via terminal..
Code:
sudo umount /home
