Hi everyone,
I'd like to move my Windows partition (C:) from being the last partition on the SSD to being the first. Is this a safe operation to do with MiniTool or EaseUS? Do I have to do anything extra after the move to make sure everything's in order? Or will the system just fail after the move and I have to fix the bootloader or something like that?
Move it to second partition with uefi as first one as it boots that so needs to near front for a fast boot there should be no problems I have done it ok it will reboot and do it pre windows boot
Thanks a lot! I also have to move the UEFI in this case. I'd like to ask another question: what about the recovery partition? Does it matter where I put that one? (I'd put it either as the last (with others between it and the Windows partition) or below UEFI).
I wanted to mention this in the first post, but I forgot.. I want to be able to reduce the size of C: and increase the size of another partition, but since C: is the last partition, I cannot.
MiniTool Partition Wizard Free will let you resize partitions however you want to.
It does, but some operations require partition movement. I want to resize C: so that the free space is after the partition, which implies the partition I want to merge the free space with has to be after C:.
Still, I just noticed (by opening MiniTool, for which I thank you! :) ) , that my D: partition is actually after C:.... I was fooled by Windows Disk Manager's list view which shown C: as the last partition ; however, the physical ordering was the one shown at the bottom of Disk Manager.
