Thank you for taking the time to make and post The Video. If you could, can you please elaborate on the different cloning tools (System Clone vs Disk Clone vs Partition Clone) - I think I understand the partition clone as you can select an individual partition to clone, but the difference between the system clone and disk clone is not clear to me. Which one should be used to clone a drive that has the OS, other programs, and files on it.

If you want to get an exact copy of the original drive, then choose disk clone. Why did you use the system clone?

I just bought this and used it to clone my C drive (which was max full). I did it the system clone route like you did. The destination of the clone is a 1 TB external hard drive. The source (C drive) is 120 GB SSD. I just finished it about 10 minutes ago. But I'm not entirely sure what to do next. I forgot to check also to see if my BIOS will allow me to boot to USB. If I am allowed to do this, what's the best way of exchanging the old C drive with the soon to be new C drive? My pc is Win 10.

Hi,
In the old drive, the windows is remain there or it complete moved?

Hi,

I want to replace a old sdd nvme m2 by a new one, so I follow your step (clone system) of the old sdd on the new one (new one is on external case to clone it). When the cloning is over I replace the old one by the new one, and then I start my pc.

Unfortunetly it stays stucked. It just show me the same screen over and over without going further....


I don't what is the prblem...

I got the pro version and I cannot get my system clone on usb to transfer to ssd in laptop. I'm using another USB stick to boot into backupper and then trying to use system clone from USB stick that I put it on from original drive.
The software seems useless.
It says it cannot see a bootable source but I have stick in that has system clone.

I did the system clone and changed boot order in bios but it wouldnt boot, got a blue screen on loop...should i remove the original harddisk and replace it with cloned drive?

Hi, i have an issue after migrate my OS to a new SSD. After I clone my OS to a new SSD and I reboot my laptop, it shows inaccessible boot device when i change my bios to new SSD . In this issue, I still have my old SSD inserted in my laptop and the new SSD plugged using external devices. So, is it i need to change my SSD first then change bios to solve this issue?

[farhandelhi]

[gthorizon]

[staticboyj.r.]

I got an error 33 code do you know how to fix it

[mohamedalborji]

Its not free... Ask me to upgrade.. Another way to clone free??

[douglashall]

I have done everything correctly and it said it cloned successfully. But when I try to boot from the new drive it will not boot. I have changed the boot order. Unplugged the old drive. Changed it to legacy mode. I have looked everywhere to try and solve it. Do you have information that might help me?

[KintaroTakanori]

you need pro for system clone, god damn it -.-
