Any recommendations for a partition manager for Vista?

I'm looking at Acronis Disk Director, but don't see that it will work
with Vista.

Acronis DD works nicely with Vista.

If you look at the "latest" version of Acronis Disk Director Suite you will
see that it does, indeed, work with Vista!

Sounds good to me Richard. Thanks.

You've been hanging around these groups for quite a while! I think I
remember you from the earliest days of XP.

Acronis works with Vista.

Also you may wish to consider Paragon.

Thanks, but Tucows rates Acronis higher.

RightClick My Computer -> Manage: select Disk Management.
You can delete Partitions, and you can shrink a partition which in effect
extends empty space to new drive. For example say on 350GB disk you have only
Vista U. 32 (C:); you can Right click "shrink"
say in half, & install Vista U. 64 to resulting D: drive.

Though this may not be what you are trying to do, it is free and good to
know about.

I already know about it. That's why I prefer a third-party manager.

I'm gonna jump on Acronis Disk Director after using Partition Manager
for umpteen years. I stopped upgrading at 8 when it got sold several
years ago, but I lost the 8.0 install file - only have 7.0 - and
need/want something newer for my Vista machine.
