martinlest:How would I then restore the Macrium Windows 10 image from within the Windows 11 O/S? dalchina: I'd have thought it more straightforward to use the Macrium R. boot disk.
Boot your PC from that with the backup disk connected, then go from there.
martinlest:Macrium made an image of four (I think) partitions needed for booting, some without an associated drive letter, not just the Windows 10 installation. dalchina:UEFI is typically 4, and MR attempts to select all the partitions comprising the O/S. But you should always check.
If you created a definition file (a backup job) when you created your first full image (you should) - which you can use for subsequent differential images in a few clicks, for example, you can examine that- it will show you what is to be imaged.
Example- here I chose to rt click the definition file, click Edit:
(My backup disk is not even inserted).
Otherwise you could mount the image file and explore it.
martinlest:How do I go about selecting the location to which the image needs to be restored? dalchina:MR attempts to match the partitions- or you can select manually.
martinlest:but would the programme then recognise the image as being for Windows 10, dalchina:No, it only knows about partitions.
Many thanks for the clarifications. (When I asked "would the programme then recognise the image as being for Windows 10,?", BTW, I meant to ask whether it would recognise, not the O/S specifically, but that the image needs to be retored to the specific partitions that it originally images - and which (just happen to) contain Windows 10).
Yes, I should create a Macrium R boot disc. I think I have one, but it's very old.
