EASEUS, Free Partition Magic-esque tool.

So very recently I had a need for a partition editing tool, and being the tightwad that I am I was looking for a free util that would handle such a task. I decided to give GParted a shot, not because I've been successful with it before but because it seems to be everyone's favorite free partition tool. So I downloaded the ISO and burned the image to a cd, and rebooted to the cd and nothing happened. So I burned the image to a cd with a different image burning util and rebooted the system to the cd... again nothing. So I decided, there has got to be something else that will do this.

Hence I went to my old friend Google, which in a round about way came up with this little pearl, it's called EASEUS Partition Master and it's free for home use. I decided I'd give it a shot figuring I have nothing left to lose ('specially since it was my moms computer not mine ;) . Turns out the tool works fantastically. It's been a while since I've used Partition Magic (Magik?) but the interface is much like I remember Partion Magi_ being.

So far I haven't seen any side effects but it's only been 15 min. if any come up I'll post them. If you didn't get that link the first few times here it is again

  1. Cool! It seems to work for me too, and the fact that it’s free helps too ;)
