Acronis Disk Director Suite Main Window
-
Acronis Disk Director Suite is controlled through the main window. It includes the menu, toolbar, and disk and partition tree (shown/hidden through the View menu). This represents the computer disk and partition list.
The main window appearance differs depending on the selected operation mode. The difference applies to the available operation list in the main menu, partition context menus, sidebar and toolbar, and the amount of partition structure details represented.
In the manual partition operations mode, the main window also includes all unallocated disk space, while only partitions are shown in the automatic mode. Partition creation, free space and copy wizards automatically recognize unallocated disk space in this mode.
Disk and partition information
The main window shows the partition's disk number, assigned letter, label, type, status, size, free space size and file system. Disk and partition information is also provided in the partition and disk tree.
The bottom part of the main window graphically indicates the selected disk and its partitions as rectangles with basic data on them (label, letter, size, type, file system).
Customizing the main window appearance
You can customize the appearance using the View menu - in particular to show or hide window elements like sidebar, partition and disk tree and toolbars.
