Paragon Disk Manager affords everything you may need for managing hard disks; it's suitable for both everyday and rare needs, for either inexperienced user or advanced professional.

Repartitioning of hard disk. At any time you can easily and safely change partitioning of your hard disk, change parameters of partitions. All modern and usually used file systems and operating systems are supported.

You can even install and manage several operating systems on your computer, no matter which they are. Overcoming barriers between different families of operating systems - get full access to Linux partitions (Ext2/3FS) from Windows operating system.

Secure your system in different ways! Create backup images of your system to have the whole system quickly restored in the case of hard disk failure or system crash. Create special encrypted drive to store sensitive data on it; any application and even operating system have transparent access to this encrypted drive, but only if you have supplied correct password or key. You can completely erase deleted files and data, not deleting just references to occupied sectors, but really erasing data contained on those sectors.
