I was able to do this only after I defraged my harddrive though. It is possible that you're having issues due to this, the files are spread out possibly contributing to the problem. Defrag the harddrive first, which might take a while if you have'nt in the past. Once your file are all neatly where they should be, partitioning will go smoothly. Hey there,

I've used this application on about a dozen different systems now, with no issues. The first thing that I noted as that you were performing a lot of operations there to resize the side-by-side partitions. I would suggest breaking the work down into smaller pieces and doing one at a time. i.e. Decrease the size of one partition, reboot, move allocated space if necessary, reboot, increase the size of the other partition. Doing this would give you a clear indication of where it was failing. The second thing I would recommend would be to contact the manufacturer, EASEUS, to get the answers to your questions and possibly some technical support. Depending on the size of the partition and the amount of data on it, a resize operation can take a tremendous amount of time. Note the 4 hours for the minor resize in this post. Every situation is different and I couldn't begin to speculate. Rebooting is a necessary evil when it comes to making changes to partitions. Disrupting the processes that take place after the reboot can have disasterous effects, such as data loss. Good luck, and check out the Partition Manager FAQs at http://www.partition-tool.com/easeus-partition-manager/faq.htm Jerry,

After rebooting several times, the G: partition data was erased and size of the partition was decreased. Using a Data Recovery program and was able to restore all my files to the G:partition. I started Partition Manager Home Free Edition again, and began the resizing process again with my C: drive, it looked fairly straight forward - since I noticed that there was 32GB of unallocated space at the end of the C:drive that had not been there before. I moved the arrow until all the unallocated space was assigned to the C:drive. I selected resize/move, clicked on the C: partition, clicked OK and APPLY. The system shut down and rebooted with nothing appeared on the screen (it's not blue). The system has been running 8.5 hrs now, and so far nothing has indicated that the process was complete successfully. I rebooted the system again and rechecked the partition on C: - the partition was still not resized. My questions are: How long does it take to resize a partition when adding 32GB of space? Should I reboot in order for the partitioning to be completed? What could I have done that created this problem? Fortunately, I did create backup of the C: drive with a bootable DVD ( 8rs ) just in case. Thanks in advance!

He simply needs to shrink the size of the current partition by the amount that he wants the new partition to be. Once he has done that, he will have created unallocated space. Still using EASEUS, he can then create a new partition using the newly acquired unallocated space. Hi Eric,

For example, I have a friend who has Windows Vista installed on his laptop (only 1 partition). What if he wanted to shrink the Vista partition and add another one? Will this software do that?
