4. On the next wizard page you will see the maximum size available for the

selected partition. You must select the size yourself.

Entering the size to increase partition free space

Note that althou

h selected partition size is increased at the expense of other

partition space, if there is unallocated space, it will also be used if needed.

Unallocated space is automatically considered to be the maximum partition

size.

5. In the last Preview wizard window you will see a graphical representa-

tion of the new partition structure, including the resized partition.

Clicking Finish on the last wizard page will allow Acronis

PartitionExpert create the pending operation list for partition resizing

(your actions may only modify an existing operation. See 2.4.5 «Modifying

pending operations»).

The new partition structure will be graphically represented in the

Acronis PartitionExpert main window.

Similar to creating a new partition (see 3.1 «Creating A New Partition»), Acronis

PartitionExpert considers the results of partition free space increase as a single com-

plex operation that can be undone only as a whole.

3.3 Copying Partitions

Having copied a partition, you get the duplicate of all its data. Partition copy

can be used:

• As a partition backup (or rather a data backup),

• A system partition backup is advised if you want to upgrade the existing

operating system,

• To quickly move all data from the old disk to the new.
