Omg… this was a lifesaver!!! I tried for two days to clone my HDD to USB SSD and didn’t realize windows wouldn’t boot from it. I was able to load and boot windows using this method and my product key transferred automatically. It stinks that I now have to transfer the rest of the data manually, but it’s worth it to have the boot up speed and read and write speed of USB SSD over USB 3.1 over my old internal HDD.

I avoided doing this USB method just purely because I didn't have a USB, now if Microsoft told me I could use my plug in external hard drive I could of had thus fixed days ago, thank goodness for your video cause the rest of the videos I had watched made it really complicated when clearly it didn't need to be, so like and subbed hopefully by the the morning cause am gonna be up all night doing it I will finally have working pc again with no blue screens or random restarts 😊

Like, Windows Sandbox not working, Windows Updates fail, missing WinRE partition, etc. Everything is 1:1 with my original Windows, and all I mentioned simply works there without any issue. I'm aware it's kinda hack-ish way to sector-by-sector disk cloning and issues along the way are to be expected, but I really want to understand why some things don't work after cloning. I tried many things to fix it and I'm still confused; mostly about Windows Updates failing.
