Can't resize partition

I’m using kde partition manager to extend my manjaro partition after shredding the one with Ubuntu but I get this error.

You’re not doing this from within the installed system, are you? :thinking:

Yes I’m doing it from the partition I’m using now (manjaro one).
Is it not correct?

No, it’s not. You should be doing it from the live USB/DVD.
