Resizing a root
- Unlike all others, the FAT16 root is located in a special place and has a limited size (512 elements after standard formatting). Acronis Disk Director Suite lets you change the root size of existing partitions.
To resize a FAT16 partition root:
• Select a disk and FAT16 partition from the list in the Acronis Disk Director Suite main window.
• Select Disk - Advanced - Resize Root or a similar item in the Advanced sidebar list or by clicking Resize Root on the toolbar.
• Enter the new root size (a number of elements) in the Resize Root window (FAT16 can contain a maximum of 65,520 elements).
• By clicking OK , you'll add the pending operation of FAT16 partition root resizing (your actions may only undo or modify an existing operation. See Modifying pending operations).
