I want to create a FreeOTFE partition on my unallocated space, but can see it in the partition display – where is it?
For obvious reasons, the FreeOTFE only shows partitions which are reported to it by the OS. Disk space which does not form any part of a partition (i.e. is not referenced in any partition table on the disk (primary or extended); reported as “Unallocated” by the Windows Disk Management tool) cannot be “seen” by FreeOTFE. To make use of such space, use the Windows Disk Management tool to create a new partition for it, and then use FreeOTFE to turn it into an encrypted partition. Please note that FreeOTFE is not responsible for partitioning your hard drive – you should be using a partitioning tool for that!
