I have an Asus laptop and it had windows 10 by default and it has 512 GB SSD. I shrinked about 60 GB from a windows drive and I formatted it as unallocated partition. I installed Ubuntu on that 60 GB. Now I want to change the partitions again and allocate a bigger size to ubuntu. Now I have about 200 GB of unused memory on windows and need more space on ubuntu. Note that I do not want to mount them in read-only mode. Is there a solution to do that?

EDIT: I am dual-booting now and I want to have both windows and ubuntu on my laptop. But the partition allocated to linux is only 60 GB out of 512 GB of SSD. I want it to be more. [gparted][Screenshot link is attached.]

EDIT: I turned off device encryption in windows and now I can access windows drives and files from linux. But they are mounted in read-only mode and I can not create files, etc. How can I now access them (ex. only one drive), like the main ubuntu drive? gparted now

The best way is to boot into Windows and shut down the system. Select Ubuntu kernel from the grub menu to boot into Ubuntu afterwards. Open file manager after login, from the left pane, find the partition you want to mount under devices and click. It should be mounted and it will show on main pane
