I would like to inform you that EaseUS Partition Master is not free for commercial use and requires a valid license.
Could you please confirm whether a license has been purchased for use in Austria?
Thank you for the information, I didn’t know that…
I already found an alternative, which is free for commercial use: https://www.diskgenius.com/download.php
I will adjust the manual to use that tool instead.
thank you very much.
