I can't expand my Simple Volume Disk0 for C:\ Volume.

This is Server 2016 Virtual Machine, Unallocated space of 300GB was added to the VM Disk, as you can see in the screenshot. I haven't the option "Extend Volume" on the C-drive. On the D-drive the option "Extend Volume" is working fine.

Any suggestions please?

You can only extend a volume into adjacent free space. The C: volume has no adjacent free space. The free space is adjacent to the D: volume.

You could use a third party utility (take your pick) to make the changes needed to extend the C: volume.

The reason is because the free space is not exactly after the volume you want to extend. If you can move the volume D to be on the right of disk and then extend volume C
