You can enlarge and even move a Windows partition (boot system partition and/ or the main Windows OS C:\ drive partition), but you MUST either not change the partition UUID or edit the BCD file with the new UUID numbers. Also, it would be a good idea not to interfere with the MSR partition. Its been quite a few years since I had to mess up with any of this so I'm not up to date with the latest MSWindows boot requirements.
