disk partition manager · NIUBI
NIUBI Partition Editor
Windows partition editor with a free home edition and a $39 one-time Professional edition.
In short
- The Free edition costs $0 and is for home, non-commercial use on 1 PC1,8.
- Professional costs $39 one time and covers 1 or 2 PCs2.
- Professional adds 1-Second Rollback and a bootable media builder; Free lacks both1.
- A 90-day money-back guarantee applies, and the licence is valid perpetually for the version bought2,5.
- Converting MBR to GPT and cloning a disk are listed; splitting a partition is not1,3.
NIUBI suits people who want one payment of $39 for two PCs, plus rollback if an operation is interrupted1,2,6. The Free edition covers resize, move, merge and MBR to GPT conversion for home use1,3. The catch: pages do not list splitting, FAT32 to NTFS conversion or partition recovery, and Free has no rollback or boot media builder1,3.
Best for: People who want a low one-time price and a rollback feature.
