    Hi Ajay,

    Hi Ramesh Srinivasan,

    Thanks so much for comments/reply.
    I have the same Problem. EFI at DELL Latitude 7420 is only 100MB.

    I talked to DELL-Germany as I am in Germany. DELL is not aware of the EFI too small Problem. DELL suggested me to Backup or Copy my Data and reinstall Windows 11 completely new. But I have not done reinstallation and waiting for either BIOS Update through DELL or Microsoft-Update.

    I think the reinstallition will not fix the problem permanently as DELL can again put junk in EFI-Partiton. I think the expansion of EFI-Partition is only solution or update through DELL or MS..

    Before I resize/expand EFI-Partition, I would like to know, whether somebody has done it with success and without problems?
    What tool had been used for resizing, AOMEI or something else.?

    I will very much welcome and appreciate your comments.

    With best wishes

    Satish M. Tripathi

    Hi Satish,

    If you wish to resize the EFI partition (which will permanently fix this issue), you can use AOMEI or a similar third-party tool.

    Caution: The process described below is non-destructive. However, it's highly recommended that the data be backed up to an external drive before modifying the disk layout.

    Please see:

    Hi Ramesh Srinivasen:

    Thanks for your reply. As I am not very expert in doing the suggested things alone, I have to ask for help one of my friends. Till then I will wait for more response and comments.

    Thanks once again
