GBFailed mid progress when converting to… Failed mid progress when converting to gpt for windows 11 requirements. DO NOT USE THIS SOFTWARE. Required partition wipe and reinstall of Windows 10 without data to fix.

GBEaseUS Partition Master - auto-renewal warning I bought 1 x EaseUS Partition Master Professional (1 - Month Subscription) 16.8. The first month cost 9.83 GBP. I thought I'd just bought it for one month. No. The name is misleading and they then charged me 31.45 GBP for the second month and all further months. They count on people not reading the small print. WATCH OUT for the auto-renewal. I will never use again.

CHRefund policy is not honored by support I was trying to create a 5TB partition on an MBR disk (which is possible by changing the sector size to 4Kn, look it up), when it prompted to upgrade to the pro version of Partition Master. It said something like "To allocate space beyond 2TB on MBR disks the pro version is required." (the message does not show up in the pro version and I didn't manage to reset to free). I requested a refund pretty much immediately after realizing that it silently changed the partion table to GPT whenever I allocate more than 2TB. Support was not helpful at all. Seemed to not know very much about the topic (e.g. started talking about cluster size when I was talking about sector size). Specifically, they said they can't refund me because of article 6 of their refund policy which states: "Please understand that we cannot provide a refund if our product does not perform tasks it is neither intended to perform nor advertises it performs." I tried to argue that it did advertise the feature but without any luck. In conclusion, their "money-back guarantee" is pretty much a scam. The software itself might be ok - but honestly, just use literally anything else and don't waste your money on this.

GBFree to waste your time Ads and reviews everywhere, been around forever, couldn't recall why they weren't a routine utility for me - seemingly every assurance that it could resize a partition...nope. Cant do anything. The app makes it look like you should have gotten a key when you signed up for the free download - nope. You get to buy the app first, then you get a key. The free version is all marketing wankery, it proves nothing about their application. Free version - I'm free to waste my time? You're free to spend my free time? Just what definition are we settling on for free here?
