Increasing partition size is often done by users who feel like improving utilization ratio of disk space. However, it is not easy to increase partition size. By using command prompt tool, the operation can be achieved, but this method is dangerous. Any carelessness is likely to call forth a large number of data losses instead of increasing partition size. Many users may feel it curious why we run a risk of applying command prompt since the Windows 7 operating system's built-in disk utility is able to extend partition and shrink partition. Despite the extending and shrinking functions, the tool has a limitation that it is only capable of operating the tail end of a partition. When we are trying to expend partition forward, the following situation will appear.
In this window, if the unallocated space is in front of the partition to be increased, the function "Extend Volume" is unavailable. Therefore, in this situation, the system's built-in disk management tool can not be taken advantage of. Since command prompt tool is of great danger, using the third-party partition magic to increase partition size is the wisest choice and MiniTool Partition Wizard is suggested.
