Not even close! My wild guess is either of the belows: "Apparently the NTFS journal file is unclean. Please shutdown Window properly before using this software. If it wouldn't help then please report it to lin...@li.... Thank you." "Apparently you have a corrupted NTFS. Please run the filesystem checker on Windows by invoking chkdsk /f. Don't forget the /f (force) parameter, it's important! You probably also need to reboot Windows to take effect. Then you can try ntfsresize again. No modification was made to your NTFS." In the first case you must boot Windows and in the latter one run chkds /f then reboot Windows __TWICE__. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.
