One-Click Disk Health Diagnostic with Complete Solutions
The v20.8 of EaseUS Partition Master covers 4 practical issues that most Windows owners often request solutions for:
- PC or Windows boot failure, or boot issues
- Not knowing whether a hard disk or SSD is healthy or not
- Lack of a method to improve SSD speed
