FAST32 has a limit of 2 TB
windows(even 10) ius limited to 2TB.
Just keep drive C and D as 2 TB each and change the properties of the installed programs to use DX by default then you wont even notice the 2 drive setup.   I assign my games to D anbd everything else to c.  By changing the properties i dont even notice this

Assuming that there is nothing actually * limiting * you to the 2TB partition size, you * should * be able to adjust this in Disk Manager (a GUI disk utility built into Windows)

In Disk Manager:

Rt click the partition you want to get rid of and delete it Rt click the primary partition and extend it to the full size of the drive.

NATURALLY, you will want to make sure that you are all backed up first, in case poo hits fan. It usually doesn't, but you never know. If the system won't let you extend the partition, then there is a technica limitation that is enforcing the 2 TB limit, and you will need to reinstall from scratch to overcome it (assuming you CAN overcome it).
