Making a clone from USB disk to Portable disk only starts windows first time
Hello, I´ve tried to clone new disk installed on my portable from old portable disk (smaller) installed out, in a usb device.
I´ve done it both, using clone utility and making a complete disk backup. In both situations result is the same. When clonning or back up activity finish I selct shoot down PC.
I disconnec USB device and start windows with the new and recently disk cloned.
Everithing is ok and Windows run normally untill I shoot down the computer. Afther that system doesn´t start anymore.
It seems a problem related to MBR but any utility recognizes the disk anymore until I format it again.
Tanks in advance.

Greetings,
I can't tell from your description if you are using USB and a dock or what you are referring to as "portable". In any case, I would suggest that you make a full disk image of the booting disk that you wish to restore elsewhere. Restore that image and attempt to start your machine. Restoring a complete disk image to a larger or smaller disk is pretty straight forward. If you are using a non-conventional method unexpected behavior may result. One of Grover H's helpful guides might help with this.
