A freeware partition manager for Windows drives.
In the early days, creating and managing partitions on any operating system was a complicated task. Today, Paragon Partition Manager Free is a tool that can manage and create partitions in a graphical user interface in an easy way.
The free edition on offer from Paragon makes it an easy task to create a new partition for a second operating system, as an example.
The user interface of Paragon Partition Manager Free is clean and simple. It's divided into a few different sections, chiefly the operations tab which displays currently connected storage media and drives. Options here allow you to create new partitions and format them in FAT32, NTFS, Ext2, Ext3, Ext4, Apple HFS and Resilient FS 2. It can convert between filesystems. Windows uses NTFS, while Linux uses one of the Ext filesystems.
Other options for partitioning include expanding a partition, delete a partition, change drive letter, change volume label and set partition as active.
Paragon Partition Manager Free makes it very easy to organize and optimize a hard drive through its wizard-based tools which walk you through creating, formatting and deleting partitions.
All in all, Paragon Partition Manager Free is a pretty good starting point for managing drive partitions.
