Partition Magic originally released by PowerQuest is a piece of high-performance and high-efficiency partition management software. It can adjust partitions without damaging data, such as copy NTFS partition or FAT partition,
move partition,
resize partition,
convert file system between FAT and NTFS,
change cluster size,
merge partition, and support EXT2 and EXT3 file system.
Originally, PowerQuest Partition Magic kept periodical edition updates and unceasing technology innovation at PowerQuest's time. However, since Symantec acquired this partition magic, there was no new PowerQuest Partition Magic edition any longer. In 2009, Symantec announced officially that they do not offer technology support on PowerQuest Partition Magic. Actually, Partition Magic was preferred by a large number of users especially PC users when it kept updating, and most Windows XP users also use this partition magic to manage disks. However, since Microsoft released Windows 7, many users shifted from Windows XP to Windows 7 because of its superiority. As PowerQuest Partition Magic does not have technology innovation, it can not run under Windows 7. As a result, it declined and waned gradually. Partition Magic's time has become the past, but can we say good
partition management can not be realized? It is of course not. Currently, we can find much partition magic which can run under Windows 7 from the internet. Among them, a professional partition magic called MiniTool Partition Wizard can help us realize all-sided
disk management and partition management. Besides, it also has perfect compatibility that it supports almost all Windows operating systems, such as Windows XP, Windows 7, and Windows Server series. With it, we can
resize partition, recover partition,
create partition,
delete partition,
format partition,
move partition,
merge partition,
convert file system,
change cluster size and perform other operations easily.
