MiniTool Partition Wizard Free 9 vs MiniTool Partition Manager Free 10.2 - NTFS a FAT

En el post sobre Android, cable OTG y memorias usb que tienen que estar en el formato FAT32 para poder ser reconocidos por Android, dejé un pantallazo del programa MiniTool Partition Wizard Free Version 9 que en su versión gratuita permitía convertir una memoria usb, o disco duro, del formato NTFS al formato FAT. Pero eso era en la versión 9.


En la versión gratuita número 10 de MiniTool Partition Wizard
 NO es posible convertir de NTFS a FAT. 

La versión 10.2 es la versión actual a fecha 10 de Agosto de 2018.

De todas formas si que recomiendo el programa MiniTool porque a mi me ha servido muchas veces para reparticionar discos duros y redimensionar, ampliar o acortar, particiones de discos duros cuando no podía hacerlo con el Disk Manager de Windows.

La versión actual gratuita, con sus limitaciones que ves en el pantallazo anterior: https://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html

La versión PRO que te permite convertir NTFS a FAT (aún no se si es a FAT16 o FAT32):

*************************

Aquí tienen que ir dos pantallazos, o uno, del error que he tenido al 90% de conversión de NTFS a FAT con MiniTool Partition Manager, o Wizard, versión 9 y en Windows 7 con puertos USB 2.0.

He intentado convertir de NTFS a FAT un pendrive, memoria usb, de la marca SanDisk y de capacidad de 64GBs. Al ser los puertos USB 2.0, convertir 28GBs de espacio ocupado de ese pendrive ha supuesto muchísimas horas, aunque menos de 8 horas...

Al 90% ha aparecido un error y por suerte la memoria usb no ha sido dañada, simplemente sigue en formato NTFS con todos sus archivos aparentemente intactos. Por ahora, los que he comprobado funcionan correctamente.

Mi explicación es que el pendrive SanDisk de 64GBS, color metal y verde, es muy pequeño, tan pequeño que queda muy pegado al puerto USB y si se esta demasiado tiempo trabajando con el se calienta en exceso y creo que es ese calor el que ha provocado el error.

Hay unos extensores para usb, que permiten alejar la memoria usb del puerto usb.

*******************************

Otro posible programa que permite convertir de NTFS a FAT:
Descarga un archivo llamado epm.exe de 38.5MBs

Otra opción que no conozco: http://www.aomeitech.com/n2f/

Un poco... de descargar, al final se descarga el Partition Assitant desde:


Voy a instalar AVAST Free Antivirus en Windows 10 e instalo el AOMEI Partition Manager o Assitant y dejo pantallazos aquí.


*********************


Para convertir FAT a NTFS se puede con Windows mediante una línea de comando, pero no se puede de NTFS a FAT sin perder los datos del disco duro o memoria usb:

Es posible que en Linux sea aún más sencillo, aunque esta la molestia de cargar un live cd...

Ejecutamos cmd o lo buscamos con Cortana, y si la letra de nuestra memoria usb es la letra X ejecutamos convert x: /fs:ntfs




My Best Prefered Free Partition Manager also for Windows 10 and SMART error status reader

It's easy, i need a free partition manager to delete a recovery partition on a one terrabyte hard drive i took from a damaged laptop. Easy to use, does all you need with any hard drive and it's easy to remember or recognize that its names is "Mini Tool", with colors red and black, some would say red wine colour like bull blood and black.


Enjoy!

If you need to check hard drive status, i recommend hhd scan to check S.M.A.R.T. status of disk:ç


 It's also free and exists sonce many years now :-) Congratz!!!

If you see no yellow flags on SMART report, hard drive is ok.
If you see any error yellow flag make a backup of all data you have there.
Depending on use it can last even one year or more.
I'm using "broken" hardrives to store some old movies i had and i won't be too sad to lose.


If you see a yellow flag on Ultra DMA CRC Error count they say hard drive has no inminent failure, but for sure it's not so fresh, so pay attention to it and make a backup of data you care:


And if you see error on Reallocated Sectors, then backup is urgent. Even if you still can use hardrive probably you will start to lose some data, it will disappear, and other errors can happen, but what is said is that hard drive will fail for sure:


"Funny thing" is that hard drives with such smart report errors can aparently work fine, i mean that we won't listen to any sound from inside the hard drive, no hammer sounds :-) but maybe it is slower than usual, maybe it gets really but really hot if you try to copy more than 100GBs :-)

So you may suspect something is wrong by speed, temperatura or files missing, or even files you cannot delete. Usualy you cannot delete files due to permissions, to owner of files, right click on file, go to security tab, advanced options, look for owner and change it to your Windows user, also add your user name and set full control. Done that you should be abble to delete that file. Else try with a linux live cd. Or copy all content you can and delete partition with Mini Tool Partition Manager or Windows Disk Manager. What cannot be done with Windows Disk Manager can be done with Mini Tool :-)

Ah! is hard drive goes slow, maybe is your computer that goes alow and maybe it's a virus, so check if you are infected with free housecall antivirus, one time scan;





hide easily your computer files with a hidden partition

----------------------------------------------------------
Just create a new partition and copy there files you want to hide. And then go to "My computer", right click and select "Manage" and in the next window choose "Disk Management". There you will see all your computer partitions. You can then right click on the partition you want to hide, press on "Change Drive Letter and Paths..." and then you can select "Remove" to remove the drive letter. When you want to use the content you have on that hidden partition, just follow all the steps again and just select a new drive letter.
---------------------------------------------------------
I'm just doing this to hide and unhide some files that may contain some trojan and so, files from a security course. And i can configure on kaspersky antivirus to not scan that folder but at the end i also thought on removing the drive letter so files inside will not be accidentally executed :-)
------------------------------------------------------------
My Vaio computer had a program to protect folders with my finger print. Well, without such programs, we can also hide a partition instead of a folder and easily. They will find if they look for it but :-) for folders we can change attribute to hide and that works if on folder view options we have set to hide system and hidden files...
--------------------------------------

About seeing all partitions on Disk Management, if you have linux partitions like ext4 format then you will only recognize it by the size. Check minitool partition manager to see all youy partitions with their respective format and also if you need to move or resize a partition. it's a great free tool.
