Yes Aomei backups your System partitions or complete Disk (if you have more partitons than only the System and C: partitions). And that is incl. program files and data. When restored it should boot and everything should work as before.
-
Try a Disk Backup with Aomei Backupper Free and restore that to the SSD. Be sure that the SSD is partitioned as MBR (not GPT)
-
pull it up? Connect? What do you mean?
Run Q-dir.exe as administrator. It is just an explorer, nothing to pull or connect.
Otherwise try to run Cmd.exe as administrator. -
Aomei Backupper Free.
External (USB) disk with enough space
Do a Disk backup in Aomei to the External disk.
For restore purposes, create Bootable media in the Utilities menu (WinPE UEFI version).
-
Known problem. But only with Windows Explorer. Use another file explorer like Q-dir.exe (google it) or cmd.exe or anything else. Run these as administrator.
-
On an UEFI machine (I mean without turning the PC in legacy mode) only UEFI media boots and UEFI is always 64 bit.
On a legacy machine 32 bits wil always boot regardless 32 or 64 bits CPU. -
Try the Linux version of the Bootable Media. It clones Windows disks too.
or
Choose Legacy. UEFI is always 64 bit.
Don't check the download WinPE checkbox.
Create the disk on a 32 bits Windows system. -
A. We are talking about Aomei Backupper, not Partition Assistant, right?
B. What kind of Clone did you make? Disk, System or Partition?
C. Only a Partition Clone can have another partition as target.
D. The other Clone options have a … -
For the observant users:
-
All files or just personal files like My Documents? Have you tried another file explorer?
-
WIndows 7 is in 99.9% of all cases not UEFI compatibe. Use Win10. Download the Win10 Media Creation tool from MS and make a Win10 installation DVD. You probably still can upgrade to Win10 for free with the Win7 license key.
-
I never add drivers and a wired USB mouse and USB keyboard always worked. Don't use wireless mouses or keyboards

1. within Backupper
2. No, they are compatible. Only if you buy a new computer which will then probably be an UEFI machine.
-
You have an UEFI system. The Linux CD does not boot in UEFI.
You best use the WInPE version. Use the Path option in Restore to find your images.
-
The backup images are compatible.
-
So you have a BIOS machine with a MBR boot disk and you want to convert the boot disk into GPT. Do you think this wil work? You need an UEFI machine in order to boot from GPT.
-
or to a virtual disk.
-
You're quite right. With Aomei Built-in technique on tab VSS, the Software Distribution files are indeed included in the backup regardless with or without the sector by sector option.
With the recommended option of VSS, regardless of the se…
-
By the way: What happens with a sector by sector backup / clone? According to Help this is a 100% identical copy of a disk. Has anyone tested this?

The folder is only necessary to rollback one or more updates.
If there is…

The image button in Write Comment. Tab Local. Maybe it does not respond immediately, wait a few seconds.

Depends on the number of GB and the USB speed, compression and sector by sector etc.
Example: 216 GB at 30 MB /sec = 7200 secs = 2 hours.
-
I tested with one disk almost empty and one disk with a few GB files. The empty one went fast and the backup of the bigger disk took much more time. So the backup image is probably right, not 2x the empty one, but the second disk can never be ret…

Did you connect 2 GPT data drives to the (BIOS/MBR) Win10 system via Sata, not USB, and make a partition backup from both drives in a single task?
@Bsax tested with a…

In Windows 10 if something unexplainable happens, try Restart instead of Shutdown and Restart the computer, then try again.
-
Can't you format it in Windows Explorer?
-
Is your new computer an UEFI machine? Did you set the BIOS to Legacy CSM mode?
And is the cloned HDD an MBR disk?
I've seen this behaviour when booting Win7 on a GPT disk on a UEFI machine.
Normaly Win7 is not UEFI but BIOS/Lega…

@Admin,can you comment on this erratic behaviour and let your technicians have a look at this issue? It's crazy that a partition backup beyond the first partition cannot b…

@bsax. No I cannot confirm your findings with 3 disks. I made a backup of 3 GPT partitions on 3 GPT disks. Then Explored them and they all showed up as the first disk DONAL…
-
Different names and even different sizes of the disks, makes no difference. The second disk keeps showing the content of the first disk in the (partition) backup.
The backup of the second disk is not retrievable.
