hard drive - Troubleshoot partitioning of Windows 10 disk space

I need to shrink my C drive partition to make room for Linux dual boot.


There is ~150gb free space on disk(it displays as such), but Windows returns an error tha t there is not enough space when I try to shrink.


There are 3 partitions right now: EFI System, then C:, then 1.46 unallocated, then 1000mb recovery partition.


I suspect the trouble is a result of the C drive being sandwiched between two other partitions.


How can I fix this problem and partition my drive?
