14 DAY TRIAL // Parted Magic 2013.11.11, an operating system that employs core programs of GParted and Parted to handle partitioning tasks with ease, while featuring other useful software, has been released and is available for download.
Parted Magic 2013.11.11 is considered to be a stable release and comes with a huge number of new features, not to mention a new file manager.
“The default File Manager and Desktop Manager is now PCManFM. Lots of people requested this. The desktop looks exactly the same, so there shouldn't be too much confusion. Most people probably won't even notice the difference.”
“Multiple desktops will now display two separate desktop wallpapers instead of one stretched across both screens. We feel PCManFM is also more friendly to new users and this should be a welcome change,” reads the official announcement.
