Oh, except for one thing. I was moving from a 256g drive to a 1tb drive. The disk restore created the same partition size as before, and left the rest of the drive unallocated. Is there any way I can have it allocate to C all of the available spa…

Hi again. It worked perfectly. I couldn’t have done it without your excellent advice. Thank you so much!

Apparently my old disk is gpt and the new one is mbr, and that’s the reason for the 3 partition limit. I’ll post some screen shots soon. Is there any way we could talk on the phone?
I don’t know those terms MBR, GPT, extended partitions. I have a new dell Inspiron laptop with a 256g SSD.
When I select the whole disk, I get a pop up message which says it will only restore 3 partitions, and that I can use partition restore for additional partitions. The backup contains about 6 partitions. I am using the free version of AOMEI standa…
That is very helpful. I'm still confused about this statement "you should choose System Backup function, as well as Disk Backup function". Does that mean I should do both a system backup and a disk backup every time? That will back up my C drive in…
