Moving EFI System Partition by Acronis Disk Director not possible
Hello,
I upgraded my Window 10 now to 1803. After installation I had a new partition with drive letter J at the beginning opf my system disk (I suppose there is a recoverey partition). Because I do not use it I deleted the partition. But now I have a gap of 485 MB in the beginning of my disk, then follows the EFI system partition, the the OS partition. I tried to move the EFI system partition on the beginning of my disk that i can increase a little bit the OS partition. To do that with Acronis Disk Director it is not possible neither with the installed version nor with the boot CD version. I only can copy it but not as a bootable partition. Does anybody know what top do?
Regards
Klaus

Same problem. The EFI system partition is not available for moving. There is not command in the context menu.

Hi! Please attach a couple of screenshots of your disk layout and where exactly the option is not displayed. It should be available in the following menu under Resize volume https://kb.acronis.com/system/files/content/2010/06/11407/shrink2.png

Hi, I upgraded to Windows 10 20H2 and had some issues along the way. After installation, I seem to have ended up with 451MB of unallocated space at the beginning of the disk, followed by 4 EFI system partitions (100 MB each), my C: Drive partition, followed by 505 MB Unknown parttition and my F: Drive (Documents/Data). Disk Director Screenshot attached.
Can I use Disk Director 12.5 to reconfigure my disk - how can I find out know which EFI partitions can be deleted.
