    Perform system copy with the best partition manager - Partition Wizard

    As the best Partition Manager, Partition Wizard allows users to perform system copy by either copy system partitions to certain profiles or to copy system disks.

    Copy system partition

    MiniTool Partition Manager released by MT Solution has the function of both copying partitions and as well as copying disks. This software can copy partition or disk to certain place with certain parameters. Now let's see how:



    First, select the partition you want to copy. Here we select D partition on disk 1 with a size of 74.53 GB. Then, right click the mouse and select copy, of course you can also select it from the menus. Next you will see:



    Here we can copy partition D to an unallocated space. We mark the two spaces on the picture. If the button NEXT is active, the partition is able to be copied. Now we would like to select the second free space on the hard disk.



    We click the button NEXT and we will see two diagrams showing the source and destination disk & partition. Of course, they will have the same size. But we can copy the partition with resizing. We are allowed to select the partition type, logical or primary. All these features make your partition copying experience easier and safer. You can also copy disks with the same operations.

    By copy partitions users can copy system partitions to the other partition. If the system partition fails, they can use the duplicated partition to restore the system.

    Copy disks

    MiniTool Partition Manager also can help you to backup your system by copying disks.

    There are four ways to initiate the copy disk function.
    1. After selecting the disk you would like to copy, click Copy in the menu.
    2. After selecting the disk you would like to copy, click the button Copy Disk in the Disk Operations under Action Panel.
    3. After selecting the disk you would like to copy, click the button Copy in the toolbar.
    4. In any conditions, just click the Copy Disk Wizard in the menu Wizard.

    The process of Copy disk is listed below:
    a. Selecting source disks (if using copy Disk Wizard)
    b. Selecting target disks
    c. Set the copy method.

    Here are several copy methods:
    a. Fit partitions to entire disk
    b. Copy partitions without resize
    c. Copy partitions with minimum size.



    Copy disk requires that the source disk and target disk to not be the same, otherwise the operations will not be processed. For the systems like Windows Vista/2008/7, only after using Copy partitions without resize could the computer boot from the newly copied disks.

    By following a few simple steps, you can have your system backed up with ease.
