Inspiron 15 Intel N5100 C: and D: partitions

I have a

C: OS partition with 58.5 GB of which 56.2 are used...very little available space

D: DATA partition with 397 GB of which 1.52 GB are used...lots and lots of available space..

I'm trying to load video editing software.  I downloaded the .exe install file to the D: drive but when I run the program it automatically installs the program on the C: and...of course.,...due to size...it won't install.

I have moved all my data, picture, video files which were on C: to an external hard drive

How do I move available D: space to C:  ?

Thanks

Kathy
