What Utilities Does Macrorit Offer Besides Partition Expert?

Updated

Macrorit’s site lists four utility families beyond Partition Expert: Data Wiper (secure erasure of files, free space, or whole disks/partitions, plus WinPE bootable media), Disk Scanner (scan multiple disks at once and produce a scan log), Partition Extender (extend a partition), and FAT32 Converter / NTFS to FAT32 Converter (file-system conversion). Each is offered in Free, Pro/Pro+, and Unlimited variants, with some editions also sold for business or multiple computers. Use the utility that matches the job below; if your task is resizing or managing partitions generally, Partition Expert remains the main tool.

Data Wiper: erase data and create bootable wiping media

Data Wiper is for removing data rather than managing partitions. The site describes these capabilities:

  • Wipe the Recycle Bin
  • Wipe free space
  • Wipe an entire disk or partition
  • Create WinPE bootable media

The WinPE option matters when the drive you want to wipe is the system drive or otherwise not fully accessible from within Windows. In that case, you boot from the created media and perform the wipe outside the running OS.

Editions listed on the site:

Edition Listed under Notes from the site
Data Wiper Free Home & Home Office Try/free entry
Data Wiper Pro+ Home & Home Office and Business Buy/Try; also offered as a free download to try
Data Wiper Unlimited Business Buy licenses for 5, 30, or unlimited computers

The site also shows “Wiper Pro + FREE Upgrades” as a purchase link. Treat edition feature differences as something to confirm on the comparison pages before buying; the homepage excerpt only establishes the product names and the listed capabilities.

Disk Scanner: check disk health across multiple disks

Disk Scanner is the diagnostic utility. The site states that Disk Scanner Pro can scan all disks at the same time and create the scan log for all disks. That log is the practical output: it gives you a record you can keep or share when checking whether a disk is behaving normally.

Editions listed:

  • Disk Scanner Free — try
  • Disk Scanner Pro + — buy/try
  • Disk Scanner Unlimited — buy

Choose the free edition to check a single machine casually. Choose a paid edition if you need the multi-disk scan-and-log workflow described for Pro, or if you are scanning across more computers under an Unlimited license.

Partition Extender: extend a partition

Partition Extender is a focused tool for extending partition size, listed separately from the full Partition Expert manager. The site lists Partition Extender and Partition Extender Pro.

Use it when extension is the only operation you need. If you also need to shrink, move, merge, or otherwise manage partitions, Partition Expert covers the broader set of operations; the site describes Partition Expert as an all-in-one partition manager.

FAT32 Converter and NTFS to FAT32 Converter

Two converter utilities appear under Useful Utilities:

  • FAT32 Converter
  • NTFS to FAT32 Converter

These are for file-system conversion tasks. The site lists them as tryable utilities but does not, in the provided page evidence, spell out conversion limits such as maximum volume size or data-preservation guarantees. Before converting a drive that holds data, check the product page for the specific conversion direction and any stated constraints.

How to pick among them

If your task is… Use
Permanently removing files, free-space remnants, or a whole disk/partition Data Wiper (WinPE media if the target is the system disk)
Checking disk condition and keeping a record of the scan Disk Scanner (Pro for all-disk scan plus log)
Only making a partition larger Partition Extender
Converting between FAT32 and NTFS FAT32 Converter or NTFS to FAT32 Converter
General partition resizing/management Partition Expert

Practical notes before you start

  • Check Windows support. The site states the partition managers support Windows 11/10/8/7/Vista/XP and Windows Server 2025/2022/2019/2016/2012/2008/2003. Confirm the specific utility you plan to use lists your OS on its own page.
  • Back up before destructive operations. Wiping and file-system conversion act on data; the site markets data-safety technology for Partition Expert, but that does not remove the need for your own backup of anything you cannot lose.
  • Licensing scales by computer count. Unlimited editions are sold as licenses for 5, 30, or unlimited computers, so match the license to how many machines you will actually run the tool on.
  • Pricing is shown for some items only. The page evidence shows a $59.99 figure for a 30-Day Server Disk Management edition; other utilities link to purchase pages without prices in the provided material. Check the store page for current pricing rather than assuming a free tier covers paid features.
