Was just wondering if there are any plans for a new Partition Magic

with Windows Vista/7 Support?

Really miss it.

Mitka,

Partition Magic works with Vista/Win7. BUT, only if you run PM from boot media and only if the partitions are legacy cylinder-aligned. It doesn't see the partitions at all if they are 2048-sector aligned and it offers to correct "errors" which if "corrected" will render your OS non bootable.

That's not what I would call 'Windows Vista/7 support' -- no disrespect intended to you, Brian.

I believe the original question meant: Will there be a version of Partition Magic that is fully compatible with Windows Vista and Windows 7 (when it's released) ? Symantec seems to have abandoned Partition Magic. If there was going to be a Vista-compatible version, we would have seen it by now.

At this time, there are no plans to update Partition Magic for either Windows Vista or Windows 7.
