Windows Disk Management Tool Details

Disk Management is a Windows system software that allows you to perform complex storage functions. It can be used by Windows PC or Windows Server users to:

1. Create a new drive , as described in Format a New Drive.
2. Extend a volume to space that is not currently occupied by another volume on the same disk, as described in “Expanding a Volume.”
3. Shrinking a partition, often to make room for an adjacent partition, appears as ‘downsizing’.
4. Change or assign a new drive letter, as described in Change Drive Letter.

These four features are the most frequently used options in Windows Disk Management. Besides these four, you can also delete/mark/clean/partitions.

Why do you need a new disk management tool 2022

Although the built-in disk management in Windows has some basic features that allow users to manage their devices, many users find that it is not easy to use them smoothly.

Take the Scale Up feature as an example. If you want to expand a partition that does not have unallocated space on the right side, the “Extend Volume” button will not be available, unless you delete the adjacent partition, which means that you will lose the data on it.

Moreover, you are not allowed to convert a used disk between MBR and GPT and convert the file system between FAT32 and NTFS without deleting the data, the tool will ask you to clean everything on the target disk and drive.

Therefore, there are a lot of limitations when using Disk Management, only if all conditions are met, and this tool will work.
