Core highlights of Partition Wizard 12.9
Partition Wizard is a piece of feature-rich disk partition software that offers comprehensive solutions for disk and partition management. With this tool, users can partition hard drive, migrate Windows OS to SSD/HDD, clone hard drive, change cluster size, rebuild MBR, convert MBR to GPT without data loss, recover lost or deleted files, etc.

As an all-in-one disk and partition manager, MiniTool Partition Wizard 12.9 provides expert solutions to help users fix various issues related to partitions and disks. Let’s explore some of its core highlights.

Partition hard drive
MiniTool Partition Wizard offers many targeted solutions to partition hard drives on Windows, such as Extend Partition, Format Partition, Align Partition, etc. These features break through some limitations of the Windows partition tools, like Disk Management and DiskPart.

For example, users can extend a partition to a non-contiguous unallocated space when the Extend Volume option is greyed out in Disk Management, format a USB larger than 32GB to FAT32/exFAT, or do other partition-related work.

Disk clone and OS migration
The Disk Copy and Migrate OS to SSD/HD features provide disk cloning and Windows OS migration processes. Both features help users easily copy all content from HDD to SSD especially when they need to upgrade to SSD or replace a faulty hard drive.

The OS migration feature allows users to transfer the Windows OS from 1 disk to another one without reinstalling the OS. Additionally, this feature can copy a disk larger than 2TB using the GUID Partition Table, which is a good choice for those who want to clone MRB to a GPT disk.

Effective data recovery
The DR feature helps users recover files from formatted hard drive or many other storage media on Windows. Another feature is Partition Recovery, which enables users to directly recover complete partitions on a disk.

One of the most attractive points is that users can restore data whether they removed it from the Desktop, Recycle Bin, or even specified folders. MiniTool also designed the filter and preview tools to help users find their desired files quickly.

Disk benchmark and diagnosing
Partition Wizard provides users with practical functions to benchmark and diagnose their storage devices. The Disk Benchmark feature helps users compare their disk read/write speeds to make a good choice. If users suspect their disk is faulty, the Surface Test feature helps check bad sectors and the Check File System feature helps repair logical errors on the disk.
