How to solve the problem of too many partitions

  

I wonder if you have ever experienced the same problem with me. After knowing about multiple partitions can realize saving different kinds of data by classifications, I have created many partitions in my computer disk. Too many partitions in the disk will bring troubles. We should change this situation so that we can avoid potential troubles.

  

With long time using, too many partitions will show its disadvantages. As there are too many partitions, single partition size will be very small. And with time passing by, some partitions will be short of space. What's more, even multiple partitions help us store data by classifications, but it is still troublesome to find a certain file among so many partitions. The situation of too many partitions is not good for computer using.

  

With this introduction, I believe you have already realized the problem in your own computer. How can we solve this problem? Repartitioning the disk might be a solution, but it needs to delete all partitions in the disk, and it means all data will be lost. Nobody wants to bear the serious data loss disaster. This solution is unpractical.

  

Can we rely on built-in disk management tool? Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 built-in disk management tools have Shrink Partition and Extend Partition functions. Can we use these functions to realize decreasing partition number? The answer is negative, because built-in disk management tool can only resize a single partition, but not decrease partition number.

  

Since deleting partition is not practical, and built-in disk management tool can't realize decreasing partition number, how can we solve the problem? Professional partition magic can be the best solution. With the constant development of software technology, most kinds of partition magic have the function of Merge Partition. This function is very useful to decrease partition number. As long as you own a professional partition management software like MiniTool Partition Wizard, you can solve the problem easily.

  

Maybe some users will worry that using partition magic to merge partitions will cause file damage or loss. In fact, it is true. But as long as you never download unprofessional software or software with low security, but try professional and famous MiniTool Partition Wizard, data damage or loss will never happen to you. Therefore, while choosing partition management software, you should be very careful.

At last, I hope my advices will help you when necessary.
