There is no supported method other than a remove and re-install.

From Boot Camp 5.1: Frequently asked questions - Apple Support

Can I resize the Windows partition after installing Windows?

No. Back up your important files, then use Boot Camp Assistant to delete the old partition and create a new one.

Pardon the intrusion, but I've just dropped in to congratulate Loner T on reaching level 6. There is a virtual party for you starting in The Lounge for levels 6 and upwards. Look forward to seeing you there soon.

You should get a link to The Lounge on the ASC Welcome page soon, assuming the bouncers pay attention. If you're not able to get in within a day or so let me know and I'll give the hosts a gentle nudge.

In the meantime, congratulations on making it to level 6. 🙂
