Tips:-
- There are other functions you can use, such as reformat, delete, or move.
- You can undo things you've done with "Undo"
- As with all software, it does have bugs. Sometimes it has errors modifying file systems, trouble recognizing File systems, and reading file systems as corrupted.
Warnings:-
- Do not drag and drop the ISO file onto the CD. You must use a ISO burning program . Most computers are bundled with this kind of software, but you may have to install a free ISO burning app. Plenty of them online.
- Modifying your partitions can be dangerous. Try to back up your files unless you're absolutely sure it's safe.
