All look fine to me.

 

Creating a System Image writes System Volume Information on a different partition.

Every time I create a System Image, System Volume Information is being written on a different
partition - not the partition that has the system image. This will keep doing this until the whole partition is filled with System Volume Information.

I have restore points off for that partition. Access is denied and the System Volume Information cannot be deleted.

This was happening on both my computers when they ran Windows 8, and now it is happening with Windows 10. The only way I can find to wipe the System Volume Information is to re-format the partition, but there is no way to stop it from filling the whole partition
again.

 

Could you post a screenshot of Disk Management?

 

Use MiniTool Partition Wizard instead of Windows disk management:

Since it is the system partition you will be shrinking, MiniTool will ask to reboot the computer and complete the actions upon reboot.

 

It worked NavyLCDR thanks *Smile
