8. Provide lossless conversion function between primary partition mode and logical partition mode.

9. Provides the function of quickly formatting FAT12, FAT16, FAT32, and NTFS partitions. When formatting, you can specify the cluster size and support the compression attributes of the NTFS file system.

10. You can browse any files in any partition, including hidden partitions, including files that cannot be accessed through normal methods (such as files opened exclusively by other programs). You can read and write files, forcefully delete files, and create folders by directly reading and writing disk sectors.

11. Provides operations for assigning drive letters and deleting drive letters. You can set and change the partition label and the BPB label of the FAT partition.

12. Provide data recovery function for FAT12, FAT16, FAT32, and NTFS partitions. Supports deleted file recovery, file recovery after the partition is damaged or the partition is formatted, and is used to retrieve lost files.

13. Enhanced lost partition recovery (rebuilding partition table) function, which can quickly retrieve partitions lost due to various reasons. During the recovery process, the searched partition parameters and files in the partition can be displayed instantly. After the search is completed, the lost files in the lost partition can be recovered without saving the partition table.

14. Provide backup and recovery functions for partition tables. Can be used to recover partition table after partition loss.

15. The entire partition can be backed up to an image file, and the partition can be restored when necessary (such as the partition is damaged or formatted). Supports backing up system partition while Windows is running.

16. Provide copy partition function. It also provides three copy methods such as "copy all sectors", "copy by file system structure" and "copy by file" to meet different needs.

17. Provide hard disk copy function. It also provides three copy methods: "Copy all sectors", "Copy by file system structure", and "Copy by file".

18. Support VMWare virtual hard disk files (".vmdk" files). After opening the virtual hard disk file, you can operate the virtual hard disk just like a normal hard disk.

19. You can copy files from the virtual hard disk without starting the VMWare virtual machine, recover deleted files in the virtual hard disk (including file recovery after the partition is formatted and damaged), copy files to the virtual hard disk partition, etc.

20. Supports the creation, reading and writing of ".img" and ".ima" disk and partition image files.

21. Supports the creation of USB-FDD and USB-ZIP mode boot disks and its file operation functions.

22. Supports disk bad sector detection and repair functions.

23. Provides functions for quick partitioning and quick formatting of disks.

Disk Genius updates:

1. Add support for dynamic disk partitions (dynamic volumes). File reading, writing and data recovery operations can be performed on dynamic volumes. (Professional version)

2. Add the function of losslessly converting dynamic disks with simple volumes into basic disks. (Professional version)

3. When recovering from accidental deletion, you can enable the recovery by type function at the same time and recover files by type in free clusters. (Professional version)

4. The software saves bad sector records in the memory when it is running. It automatically skips the recorded bad sectors when reading them and does not re-read them. When there are many bad sectors, it can significantly speed up the program response. (Professional version)

5. When a sector read or write error occurs, the error message will be displayed through a pop-up information window. (Professional version)

6. When the software is closed, the currently recorded bad sectors are automatically saved and automatically loaded the next time it is run. (Professional version)

7. Added the "Reset Bad Sector Record" menu item, which is used to clear the bad sector information recorded in the memory so that you can try reading again next time. (Professional version)

8. When copying partitions, copying hard disks, backing up partitions, and restoring partitions, if a sector read or write error is encountered, the error will be automatically ignored and execution will continue, and the error message will be displayed in the prompt window. In order to minimize manual intervention.

9. For functions that require long execution, such as copying partitions, copying hard disks, backing up partitions, restoring partitions, and erasing sectors, users can choose to shut down, standby, or hibernate after the execution is completed.

10. Support dragging multiple virtual disk files to the left directory tree and opening multiple virtual disks at the same time. You can also select multiple virtual disk files in the file selection window.

11. In the disk and partition selection dialog box, if there are too many disks to be displayed, arrow buttons will be displayed at the top and bottom, which can be clicked to scroll. It also supports the mouse wheel.

12. Add the function of searching for lost BitLocker encrypted partitions. (Professional version)

13. Optimize the startup speed of the software and the response speed during operation.

14. When recovering files, if the software cannot save the progress because it is located in the partition being recovered, the user will be prompted whether to save the progress to the file after stopping the scan.

15. The "System Volume Information" folder will no longer be created when formatting an NTFS partition.

16. It is forbidden to perform quick partition operations on the disk where the operating system is located.

17. Add the total number of sectors column in the Create Virtual RAID dialog box and make it editable. (Professional version)

18. Automatically switch to the file directory display state when double-clicking a partition in the partition list.

19. Corrected the problem of inoperable drive letter after inserting a blank card reader.

20. Corrected the problem of one more drive letter being displayed after inserting the USB flash drive.

21. Corrected the bug of program deadlock when recovering deleted files from FAT partition.

22. Corrected the bug that the selection status of the collapsed type did not change when selecting the type to be restored. (Professional version)

23. Corrected the problem that the DOS version could not enter the graphical interface under certain graphics cards.

24. Correct the bad sector detection function, the bug that the detection does not start from the specified cylinder when pressing the Enter key after inputting the specified starting cylinder.

25. Corrected the problem that sometimes the drive letter could not be deleted normally.

26. Corrected the problem of program deadlock during type recovery in some cases. (Professional version)

27. Corrected the bug that after restoring files, when clicking on the partition being restored when "Partition Parameters" is displayed, the display is confusing and the partition file tree is cleared.

28. Corrected the bug that caused the program to crash when restoring files again in the file recovery state.

29. Corrected the problem that when performing type recovery in direct output mode in a free area, the scan range becomes the entire hard disk. (Professional version)

30. Corrected the problem that when recovering files through the "Recover Files of Specified Types" function in the "Tools" menu, the scanning process would be interrupted by the system disk partition update message. (Professional version)

31. Corrected the bug in the type selection dialog box where the "Select All", "Deselect All" and "Inverse Selection" buttons are invalid when the large category is not expanded. (Professional version)

32. Corrected the bug that caused the program to crash when previewing pictures in some cases. (Professional version)

33. Correct the recovery file function. When a mismatched progress file is loaded, an error occurs when you click "No" when prompted and then restart the recovery.
