Diskpart GUI Micro 2.0

Diskpart GUI Micro - quick partitioning of the hard drive before installing OS Windows.

Program description

Restrictions

1. If path to "cmd.exe" or "diskpart.exe" is different from "%SystemDrive%\Windows\System32" - "Diskpart GUI Micro" will not work.

I don't have a crystal ball.

2. "Diskpart GUI Micro" can repartition drives only in "Windows Preinstallation Environment" (a.k.a. WinPE)With command-line argument "/expert"

this restriction will be removed. It's at your own risk.
