I see no benefit in this product. It seems to do nothing more than what can be done in Windows or can be achieved with freeware that does not require you to hand over your valuable details.

I've no notion about Paragon HD software so I'm not going to comment whatsoever.

BUT.

I do know for a solid fact that if you want to, for example, shrink a partition in Windows 10 that has something like 750GBs free and Windows says that the biggest new partition is can manage to create is 27.8GBs then you very, very quickly realise that Windows own native disk mgmt utilities are not worth a sh!t.

Its at this point that 3rd party HD utility applications become indispensable.

Also the OP clearly mentioned additional functionality that Windows 10 does not have natively?

Re your hyperbolic indignation re having to use your email address to register..... Is yours kept very, extremely secret? Does anyone have it? Just a trusted few???

OP thank you for contributing to this forum with the best of good intentions, I'm sure the free software you've kindly recommended will not trouble too many people too greatly.

You could probably use yopmail or other similar free throwaway email service in any case.

1) it has advantages over Windows. But there's no point explaining it here. If you don't know what they are then you don't need them.

2) why on earth would you use real details. That makes no sense. But there's no point in explaining that either.
