3. By

clicking

in the

Set Active Partition

window, you add the pending

operation of setting active partition (your actions may only undo or mod-
ify an existing operation. See 2.4.5 «Modifying pending operations»).

The new partition structure will be graphically represented in Acronis
PartitionExpert main window.

Partition will be marked

Act

in the

Flags

field. Primary partition is also

marked

Pri

, so the

Flags

field will contain

Pri, Act

Before you set a partition active you must make sure it is formatted and contains an

operating system. Otherwise your PC will not boot from this partition!

If you set a partition active and there was another active partition on a disk, it will be

unset

automatically

. This might also prevent your PC from booting.

Setting active partition in Windows 95/98/Me can change the order of letters as-

signed to other partitions. As a result, some shortcuts might stop working. The de-

tailed discussion of partition letter assignment rules for various operating systems

are described in 3.1 «Creating A New Partition».

4.2.6 Resizing

root

Unlike all others, FAT16 root is located in a special place and has a limited
size (512 elements after standard formatting). Acronis PartitionExpert lets
you change the root size of existing partitions.

If you need to resize FAT16 partition root:

Select disk and FAT16 partition from the list in Acronis PartitionExpert
main window,

Execute operation of FAT16 partition root resizing by selecting

Disk

Advanced

Resize Root

or a similar item in the

Advanced

sidebar list,

or by clicking

Change the number of files that can be located in the

root of the selected partition

on the toolbar (or selecting it from partition

or the graphical representation context menu),

If you select a partition with another file system, mentioned sidebar and con-

text menu items will not be available.
