Before installing Windows I cannot remove all partitions, including System and Recovery partitions, except through command prompt with DiskPart… or even the remaining partitions from other operating systems and hidden ones.

I found this portable tool very useful, especially when I come across computers that have a lot of partitions on disks. To delete partitions select one of them and go to Partition > Delete You are advised to back up your data before proceeding. Select unallocated again and go to Partition > NewĪre you sure you want to apply the pending operations?Įditing partitions has the potential to cause LOSS of DATA. Select unallocated and go to Partition > New create a new partition and select a file system like btrfs, exfat, ext2, ext3, ext4, f2fs, fat16, fat32, hfs, hfs+, jfs, linux-swap, lvm2 pv, minix, nilfs2, ntfs, reiser4, reiserfs, udf, xfs, or you could leave it cleared or unformatted.WARNING: This will ERASE ALL DATA on the ENTIRE DISK create partition tables like MS-DOS (MBR – master boot record) for disks that use the standard BIOS partition table or GPT (GUID Partition Table) for disks that use Unified Extensible Firmware Interface ( UEFI).įrom the menubar access the following toolbar:.Gparted ( GNOME Partition Edition) is a Linux-based portable free partition editor that can be downloaded through an iso image and used on a USB Flash Drive created with Rufus.
