I cant migrate windows 7 to a 240 GB SSD
So I'm using your partition software trying to migrate windows 7 to my new SSD. I follow the steps, too easy, but then get to the point where it says to check the box to delete all partitions and it says that I haven't allocated enough space and i need at least 706 GB. All the tutorial videos I've watched have people migrating windows 7 to even smaller drives. Windows is less than 60 GB in size so why am I getting this error and how do I fix it? All I want to do is migrate my OS and only my OS and slave my HDD I am not trying to clone my entire drive. Please and thank you.

You better reinstall windows 7 on the SSD using installation DVD or use a bigger (1TB) SSD.
Another option is to move all data like video, images, documents, music to another disk and delete them on F. hoping you can get below 200GB. Program files and Windows and some other system folders must always remain. Maybe you can delete system backups (recovery) too by turning that feature off or setting the available space to 0%. And you can perform a extended disk cleanup in Windows Explorer (see properties of F)
B.T.W. Support for Windows 7 will be terminated by Microsoft on 14-1-2020. That is in 1 year and 4 month
Are you using a dual boot system? It looks like your F drive is also an OS drive???????
