Hi Team,
I have a problem on my macbook (retina, 12-inch, early 2016, running High sierra). There are two partitions I cannot remove from disk utility, the minus button greyed out.
What I can do to restore back to single partition 250G?
Thanks.
Daniel

You can't remove the active partition. A bit like pulling the rug out from underneath the dinner table while everyone is eating a meal. Not a good idea, so it's not allowed. Boot from another disk and you'll be able to repartition the internal drive. See instructions at https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201372
Good luck...

Daniel, are you booted from the Restore Partition?
Do you have a recent backup?
Hi BDAqua,
Thanks for your response.
I don't have recent backup. I booted just from Macinsh HD.
Is there any way I can back to the single partition?
Thanks.
Thanks. I will try from Carbon copy cloner.
Great, thanks Dot.com. I will take a shot.
