I have never used this program but here is some information on it from
PC World.

Ranish Partition Manager

Create, delete, and resize partitions on your hard drive. You can also
format drives and create a password-protected boot menu. The utility is
particularly useful if you have more than one operating system on a PC.
This version includes support for up to 32 primary partitions, a
command-line interface similar to Gdisk, and an executable file to
simulate disk partitioning using large files instead of messing with the
real disks.

Version: 2.44 Beta
Price: Free
