This means you might sometimes try to open something in the free version only to be prompted to buy the professional one. One thing we 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.

We 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 only 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 the Execute 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.
