I usually use clonezilla to clone my Windows 10 Home 64 bit and it seesms to work great, I usually use the part clone option because I partitioned my HDD into 2 partitions one were is my Windows 10 is installed and the other partitions dedicated for backups to save my clones.
My issue started when I formatted my HDD completely including the boot files, when I restored it back using clonezilla as a partition restore I couldn't boot from my first partition but I can see the content and access my files with no problems by mounting my HDD using any Linux distribution.
I will try to install Windows 10 to get the boot files back to my HDD after that I will restore my backed up Windows 10 clone as a partition restore.
I understood my mistake, I should have backed up my Windows 10 partition AND the boot partition, but how would I clone my boot partition in clonezilla, if I use the diskclone option basically it will clone my whole HDD inuding the backup partition and the boot partition. That is not a solution since I will have no place to save my clones. Any suggestions?
