It never really failed for me either, but part of the issue is finding the right 3rd party tool. I don’t think that Partition Magic is free, and not everyone is willing to pay or get cracked version.

Not all fee partition managers will do it. Last time I was doing it I went through 3 live distros before I found one that included an up to date build of qtparted. The one included in Knoppix at the time did not work for me. But that was several knoppix releases back, so there is probably a good chance that the version they include now will work just fine…

I can’t see why resizing a windows partition would be tricky?
(Unless when you do it under Windows, maybe)
I did a lot of win partition resizing with partition magic, and it never failed.
