Dual boot clone
I have used Backupper to clone a working dual boot system (Linux Mint 17.2 and Windows 10). The clone appears to have copied everythng correctly including the Grub Boot Menu. I can access Mint from that menu and it runs perfectly but when I clikc on Win 10 it wants to do a "repair" which then does not work; it just keeps repeating. My question is: How can I make the Win10 option in the Grub menu work to load Win 10 as it does on the drive that was cloned?

We are sorry to inform you that our product do not support dual boot system,when you cloned it,only the system you were using can work.Sorry for the inconvenience again.
Today I cloned a dual boot Win7 and Win10 disk using the Linux CD.
Then I inserted the cloned disk into the PC: Win7 wouldn't start, error about missing something. But Win10 did start.
.
In explorer I saw that both drives C: and were called "w" instead of the orginal names.
But that is not the reason of course. I just noticed that a clone is apparently not an exact copy.
In Win10 I started EasyBCD and noticed that Win7 was not coupled to a device (disk).
So I coupled it to \ and I also added an extra Boot entry for Win7 on \ to be sure.
Now the Dual boot had 3 entries and the two Win7 entries both did start as well.
