Once you have IM-Magic Partition Resizer Pro installed, you can copy the program's folder & use it the same way as the portable version. And as has been already posted, the free version resizer-free.zip does work in 32 bit Windows.IM-Magic Partition Resizer Pro does work, but I'd want to use it over time in a variety of situations or tasks before I could recommend it, or not.Whether you run the portable version, run the regular version without installing it copying the program's folder, or go the full install route, IM-Magic Partition Resizer Pro will add im-fre.exe & MDANTDRV.sys to the C:Windows System32 folder - MDANTDRV.sys is a driver, set up to run as a service in the registry. So if you want to be strict when it comes to the definition of 'Portable', IM-Magic Partition Resizer Pro simply is not. That may or may not matter to you.Most all Windows partition apps install drivers - the only exception I found & use is Partition Guru, though it's not my favorite Partition app.The rescue media IM-Magic Partition Resizer Pro creates is an ISO file the default location is the Desktop, so you'd need to use something like the free open source rufus to add it to a bootable USB stick. Rufus.ieIM-Magic Partition Resizer Pro only added CSM or Legacy boot files to the ISO created in a VM that booted in CSM mode - I assume if the copy of Windows running IM-Magic Partition Resizer Pro booted in UEFI mode, EFI boot files would be added.
On a positive note there was no lengthy download needed, as is sometimes the case when creating rescue media - on a.perhaps. negative note, the ISO produced does not resemble the usual files & folders on rescue media created by other software, so definitely test if you need to be able to use bootable media.

Mike, There are no significant rescue options built into the WinPE media at all, in fact since you cannot create repair or split partitions with this product it is better at destroying an existing windows installation than it is at doing anything other than resizing a system partition offline. This WinPE enables a non-admin user to boot from the media the ISO was burned to and then delete and perminantly erase the real windows partition and factory recovery partitions if a system is left with the option to boot from removable media is enabled!

With my most recent laptop, I used version 3.5.0 of this software and it worked simply and flawlessly. After a few months I needed to resize things and it did that just as well.For those of you questioning the installation and file name. As it is a portable version, which I always prefer, just extract the zip file and it is ready to go. I keep it on an external hard drive with other things I do not use very often. You can rename the application/exe file if you want to. I changed it from Setup to LaunchIMMagicPartitionResizer as that is what made sense to me, call it what you will.It's a good piece of software to have in your arsenal should the need arise.For the record I am using Win 10 Home x64.Thank you to IM-Magic and the GOTD team!

Jack, It does have the ability to change ALL the massstorage devices, as oopsed to ATAPI ISO/UDF devices that are not partitionable device, on a given system. You could just as easily say why include the ability to format drives when you cannot format optical rewritable drives. Or to erase a hard drive when you cannot erase any rewritable optical media either.
The answer is simple the program is NOT for optical media so its not supposed to have any functionality for optical media which is a completely different class of computer hardware to magnetic and solid state flash mass storage devices, ever seen a functioning master boot record on a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM or BD-ROM etc? Not all windows Devices given drive letters are equal, some are not partionable and are therefore irrelevant to utilities such as this and to include them in the program when the program can do nothing useful with them because that is not its purpose would just result in end user confusion as to why can't the end user format a CD-ROM to NTFS or Why can't I resize the partion on my Network Attached Storage device in the program because mapped network shares are shown so you can change just the drive letters the shares are mapped to or delete the mapping. And waste valuable developer and support team man hours for zero increase in program value.Do you understand now?

And waste valuable developer and support team man hours for zero increase in program value.Do you understand now?. Jack, on that point I almost completly agree! (See Note) Though sometimes you will need to reboot the computer to re-use a recently changed out drive letter as under certain circumstances Microsft Windows fails to flush its record of in-use drive letters and only a reboot will re-populate it. Note you CANNOT change ALL drive letters in windows disk managment interface as it does NOT list mapped network drives. There are MANY examples of operations offered in paid for programs that are MUCH easier and obviously cheaper to perform using windows own user interface IF you know where they are.
But that was not the issue, it makes no sense to pull in optical media interfaces into a mass storage partition resizing tool. Just as to be complete it woud be crazy to pull in mapped network storage drive letter control either but just as relevent as optical media drive letters.
Now if it was marketed as a drive letter changing tool then it would make sense to have it cater for all cases where drive letters are asociated with some kind of data device. Now here's what I consider a more relevent complaint. In windows and with NTFS one can not only address a NTFS volume by drive letter but by hard linking it to an empty folder in another NTFS volume so it 'apears' as part of a completely different drives filesystem.
You can do this in the same interface you use to add/change/remove drive letter in Windows disk managment but there is no mention of this feature in this giveaway. In fact if you already have a drive or two that are linked to your C: drives filesystem in this way to move off folders to another physical drive or partitions on the same drive to avoid user files fragmenting the operating system files or reduce the real world physical writes to a SSD system drive then this program may just trash a nicely working system by stripping out such hard links (probably not the correct term but hopefully you get what I mean). Jack, on that point I almost completly agree!

WCS.Tony,'SETUP.EXE does not seem install the software, it just seems to run it?' There's no real difference between the files in the program's folder after doing a regular install, & the files in the GOTD download.
If you install Resizer-Free it adds shortcuts & uninstall info to the registry, but otherwise the results are the same. My.guess. is that someone just fumbled with the file names, e.g. Using setup.exe rather than dm.resizer.exe. So if it bugs you, you could try renaming one or all files with setup in their name, or install Resizer-Free, then use the program's folder & contents instead of the GOTD download.

Namy, not with this or any resize product. If your only partition is full there is nowhere for the program to work in and make space to build a second file system and all its data structures as well as the other data that also filled the drive before you even started proccessing. Plus this is a partition RESIZER not creator so even if you got a bigger drive and moved the existing partition over to it this is not designed to create an extra partition in the free space.
At least Partition Resizer Pro 3.5.0 cannot create new partitions. Cannot comment on 3.6.0 as the vendor has not released that version on their site yet and the download on this site is broken so this 3.6.0 giveaway cannot be tested yet.

Namy,'I have just one full disk. Can i divide it into 2 different sized partitions by this app?' Regardless what partitioning software you use the way partitioning works is to divide a storage drive into separate pieces or sections. BUT, you can only create a partition where no partition already exists.
So to split a drive into 2 partitions, you 1st defragment the drive, IF it's a conventional hard drive NOT SSD, shrink the existing partition, eliminating some of the free unused storage space, then add a new partition to the now unused storage space that's left.If your existing drive is literally full, then you may not have enough free space to accommodate another partition.

It wasn't much help. But i tried opening there website and downloaded the Pro edition from this page.Download.The serial that was provided in the zip file actually Activated the copy of Pro edition.I am happy i got this application. But thank you for your effort and concern.I really got it activated now. But i am not too happy with it, because the program kind a looks not too professional for it claims to do. Because fiddling with parition table is not the same as backing up your PC or performing image editing.I have had a lot of head-ache in the past with partition table.Performs it once and leave it. Its a delicate job.It not a job or some kind of software testing for novice people. Gergn, first of all the link you provided still downloads the same file that is available for todays Giveaway.
