ParTEDIT32.zip has a simple and intuitive interface that shows you the list of physical drives and partitions on your computer. You can select any partition and view its details, such as size, start sector, end sector, and partition type. You can also change the partition type by entering a new hexadecimal value and clicking on the "Set Type" button. You can also save the changes to a file or restore them from a file.
ParTEDIT32.zip can be used for various purposes, such as:
Recovering hidden or damaged partitions: Some partitions may be hidden or damaged by viruses, malware, or system errors. You can use ParTEDIT32.zip to change their partition type to a valid one and make them visible again in Windows.
Changing the boot order of your partitions: Some computers may have multiple operating systems installed on different partitions. You can use ParTEDIT32.zip to change the partition type of the partition that you want to boot from to 07 (NTFS) or 0C (FAT32), and change the other partitions to 12 (configuration/diagnostic partition) or another non-bootable type. This way, you can control which partition will be booted by default.
Accessing special partitions: Some computers may have special partitions that are not normally visible in Windows, such as recovery partitions, diagnostic partitions, or OEM partitions. You can use ParTEDIT32.zip to change their partition type to 07 (NTFS) or 0C (FAT32) and access them in Windows. For example, some Acer laptops have a hidden PQService partition that contains the factory restore image. You can use ParTEDIT32.zip to change its partition type to 07 (NTFS), reboot your computer, and mark it as active in Windows Disk Management. Then you can press Alt+F10 during boot to launch the Acer eRecovery program and restore your system to factory settings.
ParTEDIT32.zip is a powerful and handy tool for editing partitions, but it should be used with caution. Changing the partition type of your partitions may cause data loss, system instability, or boot failure. You should always backup your important data before using ParTEDIT32.zip and make sure you know what you are doing. ParTEDIT32.zip is not responsible for any damage caused by its use.
