Extended Partitions not found on Easus Partition Management

I must be confused, but I've created 3 primary partitions on the new
harddrive, and when I wanted to make an extended partition, Easus PM
(dl'd only a week ago) only had two choices, Primary and Logical.

I fell for it and made a logical partition and then couldnt understand
why I coudln't subdivide it. I'd forgotten the word extended, but I
remember it now. I deleted the logical partition and tried to make an
extended one, but that wasn't a choice!!

My gosh it's not mentioned in the Help for Win Disk Management either.
How am I supposed to get more than 4 partitons?


For Linux, GParted is fairly clear and does the job. For windows, there
is an excellent third party utility called Mini Partition Wizard Free.
This has more options than I have tried and works really well.


+1 for MiniTool Partition Wizard Free

I've used it quite a bit and never had any problems with it.
