    I enabled this setting in PartWork For Windows, but it doesn't seem to make any difference on or off.

    I have an empty column here.

    Why would that setting matter? That setting has nothing to do with sizing or auto-sizing columns.

    They're two unrelated observations and images. It saved making two posts.

    Hadron,

    Full Partition list gives you over 250 File System options when creating a partition. Without that selected there are about 15 options. I never select the Full Partition list.

    My column is empty too.

    Thanks, Brian.

    I don't need over 250 file system options, so I've unselected that now.

    Thanks for the clarification with the empty column. It must be a minor cosmetic bug.

    Yes, I'd like to see that in future updates also.

    I don't think we need a Type FCh/252 partition.
    I have no idea what it is.

    Hi

    When v.4 came out there where some problems with it, now it has gone awhile since then, so is it as good as before again?
    What are the major differences with v.4 compared to v.3, and, how does it affect me as a "normal" user. ?

    I will get a 60% upgrade off offer, i suppose it is worth it?!

    I think so. IFW 2/3/4 is the only program that has been rock solid for me, in terms of restoring an image. And that includes Macrium X.

    I think so, especially if you use simple mode. It's very powerful. And it can be very difficult to tweak, but that's only if you use traditional mode and like tweaking settings. You'll get out of it what you want either way.

    Their "Image for Linux' works seamlessly for me. That's the only backup utility that prefer to use on all of my Windows PC's.

    Does anyone know what the "Auto" power option does? I couldn't see anything about it in the user manual.

    Hi

    I can not find how to remove the TBWinRE Wim for reboot, can anyone help?
    I want to keep IFW but remove that option and the boot/Wim file.

    Either EasyBCD or BootIce can remove the entry. As far as actually deleting the wim, just delete the boot.wim file tbwinre\IFW_BootWIM

    pb1,

    Do you want to do this?

    It's the third option on the Build Type window.

    Well, i do not know. I want IFW to be as when newly installed, without the reboot menu for automatic restores added.

    But the option you are pointing to i eventually found, but i do not know if it accomplishes what i want.

    It will do exactly what you want. There will no longer be a reboot menu for automatic restores.

    Great.
    I want to get rid of it, and the space it holds. And any other present Wim file in IFW that is not needed and only use a USB for recovery.

    Thank you.
