Solved Easeus partition manager error

[SquirrelTakos]

I am using the newest edition of Easeus Partition Manager Home/Free edition and I am unable to add any space to the "F:\" partition. I have been able to change all of the others around just fine, but I cannot move the unallocated space into the F partition or even move F over to the left.

Windows reboots and goes into the manager as normal before the Windows boot and I always get a message that there is an error on the disk and Easeus cannot continue. And then it just cancels the operation.

I have some knowledge in the program, but I haven't the slightest why it is claiming I have an error, or what that error could be. If anyone knows of a way to fix this, I would appreciate it.

We do not recommend Easeus for Win7 as we hear regularly of total data loss on resizing operations.

The manager we recommend here is free Partition Wizard bootable CD which has helped with hundreds of partitioning operations here. Free Download Magic Partition Manager Software - Partition Wizard Online

Rightclick F>Resize>drag left grey border to take up the unallocated space, OK, Apply step.

Oh jeez, thank you for the heads up. I definitely check that program out instead.

Thank you. I guess this has been solved then.

Do we?

I never had any trouble using Easeus.

However, there might be something about your system that doesn't play well with it.

Try a different partitioner and see if it works for you.

Yes we do, just last week we helped a person that lost the OS as well as all the data on the HDD using that S/W.


@SIW, no offence mate but you are not the average user, you are the example and that has to be taken into account.

I used the bootable partition software that you recommended and it worked without a hitch. All is well, and I'll use that from now on. The last thing I want is any chance of data loss.

Good to see you got it sorted and thanks for the update.

Just found this and need assistance please as Partition Manager was resizing my Win7 32bit laptop and now it's unbootable!
The C drive was only 10gb with a 250gb D drive both on the same disk, so I got this software and told it to redistribute the D drive space and give C 50gb. Everything went great for around 10 minutes when it said it had encountered an issue and rebooted.
Now it doesn't boot and says it can't see a hard drive!!

Any help please?
