Some features only work if you upgrade to the paid version This means you might sometimes try to open something in the free version only to be prompted to buy the professional one. One thing I don't like about this program is that several features are only available in the full, paid version, but are still clickable. You can also password protect EaseUS Partition Master, hide partitions, upgrade the system drive to a larger bootable drive, merge partitions, defragment a drive, and copy Windows to a different hard drive. The list of pending operations is even shown on the side of the program so you can clearly see what will happen when you apply them. I particularly like this feature so things like expanding and copying partitions can be done in one swipe instead of having to reboot between each operation, thus saving tons of time. Modifications exist virtually, which means you're only seeing a preview of what will happen if you save the changes, but nothing is actually set in stone yet. Changes don't take effect until you click a certain button. Managing the size of a partition in EaseUS Partition Master is dead simple thanks to their easy-to-use slider that lets you drag left and right to shrink or expand a partition.Ĭhanges you apply to a partition with this program aren't actually applied in real-time. This download takes up a few hundred megabytes of space-much larger than most of the other programs on this list-so it may take some time to download.

You have to open each disk separately from a drop-down menu, which is actually easy to miss if you're not sure where to look.

GParted runs entirely from a bootable disc or USB device, but it still has a full user interface like a regular program, so it's not at all difficult to use.Įditing a partition's size is easy because you can choose the exact size of the free space before and after the partition, using either a regular text box or a sliding bar to visually see the size increase or decrease.Ī partition can be formatted in any one of several file system formats, some of which include EXT2/3/4, NTFS, FAT16/32, and XFS.Ĭhanges GParted makes to disks are queued up and then applied with one click. Because it runs outside the operating system, pending changes don't require a reboot, which means you can get things done that much quicker.Ī small but particularly annoying issue is that it doesn't list all the available partitions on one screen like most other free disk partitioning programs.
