How to make a separate partition on a disk in Linux Mint?

Question

linux

Installed Linux Mint. During installation, I partitioned the disk into a primary partition with a mount point / and a logical partition with a mount point /myfiles, which was intended for files and would exist as a separate partition from the system. However, the /myfiles partition is part of the system and is not writable by my user yet. What is better to do: just change the access rights, or is it better to somehow make a separate section out of it? I so understand that it is necessary to transfer it from logical to primary. But how to do it, suppose, in GParted?

Answer 1

It does not depend on the partition type (primary or logical).
Direct answer to the question:
Where youruser is your user.
