In their own words
DiskGenius
DiskGenius is a Windows application for data recovery, partition management, backup and restore, and disk utilities. Its recovery features cover deleted, formatted, missing, RAW, and lost-partition data, including data on RAID arrays. Users can preview recoverable files and save selected files to another drive, or create a WinPE USB for recovery if Windows will not start. Supported recovery sources include virtual disks made with VMware, VirtualBox, Parallels Desktop, and Hyper-V. Partition tools resize, create, format, delete, hide, split, and wipe partitions, and convert between GPT and MBR. Disk and partition cloning, Windows migration, and image backups are also included, alongside utilities for bad-sector checks and repair, secure wiping, disk-health monitoring, and UEFI boot entries. The free edition has feature differences from paid editions. Paid plans start at $69.90 per month; yearly and lifetime licenses are also listed. Version 6.2.0.1829 is listed as the latest version and does not support Windows XP.
