MiniTool Partition Wizard is a free to use disk partition and management tool which runs within Windows. All of the basic partitioning tools such as the creating, resizing and deleting of partitions are included in addition to many more advanced features such as specialist data and partition recovery tools.

Some other useful features of Partition Wizard include the ability to migrate an entire system to a new disk (including optimisation for SSDs) and the ability to move, resize and copy partitions across multiple disks.

This is the free version of Partition Wizard I will be looking at and as such there are a few features which are found only in the Pro version The free version does, however, look very promising and with MiniTool having a great reputation for such utilities its time to have a look!

Partition Wizard Usability

Installing Partition Wizard

Obtaining MiniTool Partition Wizard is easy, simply head over to the MiniTool website (click here) and download the Partition Wizard installer. Once downloaded the installer will then have Partition Wizard installed in just a few clicks.

Once installed the application will start up with the new welcome screen showing, this allows users quick and easy access to all of the main aspects of the application with a single click (this can be turned off in the future if required).

Once in the main application we are greeted by a detailed yet easy to navigate home screen, the main part of the screen shows the disks currently available and the multitude of available tools can be found at the top and left of the main window.

Basic Partitioning Tools

Many PC users will find partitioning of some kind is needed at some point in the life of their PC, this could be whilst adding a new, larger disk to the PC, trying to recover some data from an old PC or migrating data from an old disk to a newer, larger disk.

Whilst Windows itself does contain some basic partitioning tools it should be stated that they are very basic and for anything more than simple creation and formatting of partitions a specialist tool is needed, step in Partition Wizard 11.

Most of the basic partitioning tools can be accessed by right clicking on the target disk in the main window (as shown above), once any tool is selected a wizard will begin walking users through the available options. Once any wizard is completed the requested actions will not take place until the “Apply” button is clicked on he top menu, the application will, of course, warn that partitioning tasks can sometimes be destructive of any existing data in the process.

Other simple but still useful tools can also be accessed from this same right-click context menu for any individual disk, this includes hiding and activating the new disk within Windows if necessary.

Cloning Disks and Partitions

One of the main uses for such software is the need to migrate entire Windows systems to new, often larger or faster hard disks. One popular option in recent years involves migrating an entire system from an older mechanical hard drive to a newer and much faster SSD drive.

As can be seen above Disk Wizard contains tools specifically designed for migrating an entire system to a new disk, this includes any optimisations required to optimise for the new disk being an SSD!

These tools also allow for other copying tasks to take place as well, for example, an entire partition on an existing disk can be moved to a new, larger disk and (optionally) resized to make the partition bigger (or fill the whole disk) in the process.

Other, more advanced partition management tools include the ability to split an existing partition into multiple smaller partitions, the ability to merge multiple partitions into one and a tool for extending an existing partition into any available free space. All of the aforementioned tools are included within the free version of MiniTool Partition Wizard 11!

Advanced Maintenance Tools

In addition to the basic and slightly more advanced partitioning tools already mentioned, Partition Wizard also contains a selection of additional maintenance tools to help manage your system effectively.

One such tool which many users will find very helpful is the storage analyser tool which can scan a hard drive and report on which files and folder are using the most space, this makes cleaning and optimising a drive much quicker when you know where to start looking!

The “wipe partition” tool allows a partition to be securely wiped by overwriting any existing data, this makes the process of recovering it much harder or (likely) impossible!

The “Surface test” and “Check File System” tools are both great additions to this free tool both allowing for both the physical disk and the logical drive to be checked for errors. Should any issues be detected Partition Wizard has the ability to attempt repairs where applicable.

The “Disk Benchmarking Tool” is another great addition to Partition Wizard which allows disks to be measured for performance across several different metrics. These metrics include both sequential reading and writing and random reading and writing to help deliver a full picture of the drives performance.

It is great to see this benchmarking tool included and it can be a useful way to help monitor the overall health of a hard drive and the impact it might have on how a PC will perform.

MiniTool Partition Wizard Free vs Pro

MiniTool Partition Wizard so far has proved itself as a very capable partition manager with a few, very useful, system maintenance tools also bundled in with it. For a piece of free software I have been impressed!

MiniTool do, however, also offer a Pro version of Partition Wizard which builds upon this base functionality and brings several additional tools into play. This Pro version can be obtained directly from MiniTool by clicking here and costs $59 (with lifetime free upgrades).

One of the main tools upgraded in the Pro version is the “Partition Recovery Wizard”, this tool is available in the free version of the software but only in an advisory
