Partition management, disk cloning and system migration with a bootable environment included, doing the operations Windows disk management refuses to attempt.
The disk management console built into Windows can create, delete and format a partition, and beyond that it says no to almost everything. It will not move a partition, it will not resize one when the free space is in the wrong place, it will not merge two, and it will not convert a disk between partition table styles without wiping it. Partition Master does all of those, without destroying what is on them.
The working model is a queue rather than a series of immediate actions. You set up everything you want, resize this, move that, merge those two, and it all sits pending until you press apply. Then it works out the correct order, decides which operations need to run before Windows loads, reboots into its own environment for those, and comes back. Nothing happens piecemeal, and a mistake made while planning is one click to undo.
Migration is the other half of what people install it for. Move an entire Windows installation from a mechanical drive to a solid state one, from a smaller drive to a larger one, or from a larger drive to a smaller one provided the used space fits. The boot configuration is rewritten for the new disk, the alignment is corrected for solid state hardware, and the partition table style is converted if the target firmware needs a different one. The machine boots off the new drive with everything where it was.
The bootable environment on a USB stick covers the cases where Windows will not start, or where the operation touches the system partition so heavily that it cannot be done from inside a running system. The same interface runs there. Around it sits the rest of the toolbox: cloning at file level or sector level, converting between the two partition table styles and between basic and dynamic disks without data loss, surface scanning for bad sectors, secure wiping with selectable passes, and a partition recovery scan for tables that were lost rather than repartitioned.
Read the whole list before you start. Most of the reports that come into the desk about this title turn out to be a step taken out of order.

Take a backup first. Every operation here is applied to the actual partition table, and a power cut halfway through a move is unrecoverable.
Suspend any drive encryption before you resize or move an encrypted volume. Resuming afterwards is fine, doing it while active is not.
