Cloning Problem

Thread needs solution

Now I am confused.  I have done the clone thing from windows 3 times and none of them work.  Isn't the clone supposed to be an exact copy of the original?  It took well over an hour to clone the drive and didn't seem to have any problems.  If my system drive dies, I want to be able to pop in my clone and get back to work.  Is this possible.  If not, it seems I wasted my money.

These were all working on the win10 system.

Lynn, thank you for raising this question as a new topic as requested.

Your signature shows that you have both XP Pro and Windows 10 systems, which of these are you attempting to clone from?

As per topic: [IMPORTANT] CLONING - How NOT to do this!!! we do not recommend performing cloning from within Windows for the reasons given.

Please provide more information on exactly what and how you have been doing the cloning?
How is the target drive for the clone being connected to the system where the clone is being performed?
Where is the target drive going to be used, is this on the same system where the clone is made or a different one?
When you are attempting to boot from the cloned drive, how is this connected to the computer?
Have you removed the original drive and replaced it with the new cloned drive?
