Issues with new Partition Assistant 6.6 and Win10
Hello,
I have some problems with new Partition Assistant 6.6 under Windows 10 Pro x64 (Version 1709). Shrinking and moving systemdrive in PreOsMode or with WinPE-Bootmedia always ends in chkdsk errors. Also when I shrinking systemdrive to generate some unallocated space, the unallocated space disappears after reload drives and after next boot there are chkdsk errors on drive c:. Fortunately I have images to restore system in each case, but it seems that new PA doesnt work reliable.
In addition there is a feature I am missing since longer time, the ability to remove PA and Backupper from WinRE. It is a very good feature that I can add this tools to RE, but what when I want to remove them?

Can you boot your computer after the chkdsk errors?
Copy file "C:\Windows\Recovery\winrebackup.wim" to WindowsRecovery Environment (Windows 7: "C:\Recovery\a folder named with numbersand letters", Windows 10: "C:\Recovery\WindowsRE"), delete thefile "winre.wim" in the Recovery Environment and then rename the file"winrebackup.wim" to "winre.wim".
Ah okay, it is nice to integrate this workflow as option "Remove from Windows RE" in future releases of PA.
Yes, in most cases I can reboot and chkdsk repairs the errors. But sometimes it goes in an "Automatic repair" loop.
Thank you for your suggestion and feedback.
