In addition, we can also create a system image or a system repair CD, which is a more secure method, because saving the backup on another disk will not be completely damaged by the hard disk. Do your best.

System Partitioning Tools

In addition to system backup, we will also talk about hard disk partitioning in this issue. Perhaps there are still many netizens who use some CDs or other partitioning tools for partitioning. In fact, the Win8 system itself has a partitioning tool.

Using the Windows key + X key combination, we first call up the system function menu, and then select the "Disk Management" option.
