EaseUS corrupted the partition table on the SOURCE disk, so ruining my backup. On the second of these occasions I was aiming to restore the OS partition from a cloned disk created as a backup. I have tried this only twice, and on each occasion Partition Master failed to find the batch file it needed on reboot. The killer is in the partition operations, some of which require exiting from windows and auto-running a file after reboot. This is quite a nuisance - dangerous only if you are a novice or lack a windows recovery disk. First, a cloned HDD (made using the Linux bootable from USB) is faulty, and requires your Win startup disk to repair it (see https:-uskb2004518). At first I thought it was just clumsily implemented - functional, but with poor & ambiguous translation - for eg the distinction between RECOVER (from data loss) and RESTORE (of a backup) is critical - but is lost on them.īut I now recognise it is much more dangerous than this. EaseUS Partition Master is a crude chinese copy (some might say rip-off) of Powerquest's PartitionMagic V8.0, which was an excellent partition manager for OS up to WinXP, but which has not been updated to run under Win7 or later. I am surprised at how positive other reviews here are - this must result from lack of experience or lack of acquaintance with the software.
