2. Cancel-at-will

When you resizing or moving partition, other disk partition software including commercial version doesn't allow canceling even if you did something wrong. Because the cancellation causes part of the parameters unable to be modified, then system and/or data will be damaged. Similarly, you cannot forcedly terminate the programs with ongoing operations or reboot the computer manually even if the computer is running slowly because of low CPU/RAM.

Thanks to the unique Cancel-at-will technology, while running NIUBI you can cancel the ongoing operations at any progress without losing data. In addition, cancellation will be done in a flash without waiting a long time to revert.

Windows Disk Management take effect of the modifications immediately, but, what to do if you did something wrong? To avoid mistake, NIUBI Partition Editor is designed to work in virtual mode and all your operations will be listed as pending for preview. If you find any incorrect operations, simply click Undo on top left to cancel. Nothing will be modified until you click Apply button to confirm.

4. Hot resize

Many skilled computer users heard about hardware hot-exchange that is to prevent server interruption. To a personal computer, it is not as important as a server to keep online, but why not complete partition resizing without rebooting, especially when you have other tasks to do? With the help of Hot-Resize technology, NIUBI Partition Editor has less possibility to reboot computer. (Close other running applications and opening files/folders in the partition that you want to modify before starting NIUBI.)

There are many precious files in your computer such as family photos/videos, work documents/projects, but there is potential system damage and data loss risk when resizing disk partitions or do other operation. NIUBI Partition Editor has unique 1 Second Rollback technology to protect system and data. It reverts the computer to original status automatically and rapidly if anything goes wrong. (It is still suggested to make a backup first.)
