Alright, well tell me wtf i did wrong

I have two partitions, one for storage and the other for os

I formatted one, deleted the other

I chose to extend volume, which should merge them.

Instead now one partition is unallocated space and wont let me turn it into a new volume, the other turned into "simple partition" with the same space it had

Get GParted.

Burn it on to a USB drive.

Boot using the USB drive.

Delete the hidden/unneeded partitions on your new drive.
