I was cloning my moms 237gb ssd to her new 1tb ssd on her windows 11 S computer using clonezilla and after booting into the 1tb drive it is showing up as 237gb. So I took out my live usb with gparted only to find out the partition used to store the data was indeed taking up 1tb. Is the a reason why it is not showing up as 1tb. Here are the options I choose to clone the drive if that helps. I also have some screenshots as well.

    As a first step, just try going into Partition Manager in Windows and growing the actual partition. This is harder from Linux because of Bitlocker.
