This software has a long history. Version 4.0 was released on July 2009.
That's new in version 9.0:
Adds Migrate OS to SSD/HD Wizard and operating log.
Supports Storage Spaces in Windows 8.
Function improved & bug fixed.
Changes product name from MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition to MiniTool Partition Wizard Free.
Don't forget to download the bootable disk from the program itself or from here:

I'll simply repeat from my last comment (sorry...)
--------------
Upon start a resizable window opens. If you have ever worked with a partition tool, you recognize this window. It has a nice (hidden) feature: under help you can make a screenshot – a good way to save information about the current state. A clear interface with detailed information.
You can modify the partitions in every way, recover partitions and save partitions. You can copy a partition – if you could restore the same partition, you would have a complete backup program.The link under data recovery leads to some freeware from the same producer.
I did not test the partitioning itself, assuming, that this would work as the other partition tools.
If you don’t have a partition tool, take this. It makes a good impression.
I’m not a software collector. I don’t need 7 partition tools on my PC. Even if you don't install this, you can keep the 71,6 MB .iso for some emergency tasks.

Today MiniTool Partition Wizard Free tried to update to 10.3 and Windows Defender went off on.
Forgot to mention : A clean install.
I did not test the partitioning itself
After all this is a partitioning tool. What's more important... knowing it has a resizeable window and compnay address, or delivering on the features it offers? I must not understand 'review'.
FWIW, I tested this download, and it works well under Win 8.1 w/GPT partitions. Resizing and merging partitions worked flawlessly. I'm surprised at its simplicity and easy of use. This may replace my AOMEI partition software.
Thanks MiniTool!
This GAOTD is one of my favourite ones, since it's one of the few apps out there providing you with a flawless bootable CD version for FREE.
Besides formatting, deleting, moving, resizing, extending or splitting your HD partitions, this GAOTD can also align them, rebuild the MBR (Master Boot Record), copy it, perform surface tests or convert MBR disks to GPT (GUID Partition Table) disks in order to break the 2TB partition damn size limitation.
Compared to the FREE version, this GAOTD offers you a couple of additional advanced features such as the dynamic disks support, the ability to merge partitions and/or to change cluster size without data loss.
So if you are not an advanced user or don't have a dynamic disk in your PC, I think that the FREE version of this magic app is more than enough to fit any need you may have for partitioning the HD of your machine.
4 THUMBS UP from me!
BEST FREE ALTERNATIVES (hey Karl, why do you never mention them in your nice comments? Don't leave me alone in this task, please!!)
* GParted (> My Personal First Choice)
Super cool FREE Partition Manager & Editor, enabling you to create, resize, copy, and move HD partitions without any data loss risk.
In fact, unlike other similar apps out there, it doesn't run under a primary OS but only from an external boot of Linux using an external HD, CD/DVD ROM, USB stick etc...

* (Portable) Macrorit Disk Partition Expert FREE Edition
Superb FREE & PORTABLE app designed to perform very advanced disk partitioning operations, such as creating new partitions, reallocating or wiping FREE space between different partitions, HD defragmenting, changing volume labels and drive letters or performing HD surface tests. Best part is that any HD changes you may have decided to perform will not take effect immediately, since users are given the ability to undo them at any time.
