Clone Disk

Clone is another useful feature of MiniTool ShadowMaker, which is significant for hard drive upgrading. A big difference between disk clone and disk image is that when you clone a disk, you can directly use it after the operation, while you will have to restore a disk image before you can use it directly. MiniTool ShadowMaker even can help you to clone the dynamic disk.

Note:

Is it better to make a clone? This depends on the actual situation. If you need to upgrade disk to a larger one without reinstalling OS, cloning is recommended. If you want to back up disk data to an image file, cloning cannot realize it but the backup feature can.

How to Clone Basic Disk

Step 1. Go to Clone Disk under Tools.

Step 2. Choose which disk to clone and where to store the copy.

Step 3. Confirm that you want to start the task and wait for the process to finish.

Message you should pay attention to:

When disk cloning is finished successfully, you will see the following message:

This means both the source disk and the target disk has the same signature, thus one disk is marked as offline by Windows. Just remove one that you don’t need.

Note:

By ticking «Shut down the computer when the operation is completed», you can take either the source disk or the target disk out of computer after the cloning.

How to Clone Dynamic Disk

MiniTool ShadowMaker also enables you to clone the dynamic disk. Now, you can refer to the following instructions.

Tip:

It can only clone the Simple Volume.

Step 1: Go to Clone Disk Under Tools.

Step 2: Choose the clone source by clicking The Source Disk. Here, you need to choose the dynamic disk.

Step 3: Choose the target disk by clicking The Target Disk section.

Step 4: Confirm that you want to start the task.

Tip:

All data on the target disk will be destroyed, so please back up them in advance.

Step 5: Wait for the process to be finished.

Step 6: When the process is finished, you will receive the following message.

This means both the source disk and the target disk has the same signature, thus you need to disconnect or remove either of them. In addition, if you want to boot your computer from the target disk, you need to change the BIOS settings.

Media Builder

MiniTool Media Builder offers a perfect solution to create bootable media based on WinPE, which provides better compatibility with your computer’s hardware. With MiniTool Media Builder, it is possible to restore the operating system to the previous state even when your computer fails to boot.

How to Create WinPE Based Bootable Media

Before you do:

Prepare a recordable CD/DVD disc and insert it into your CD/DVD driver. Or you can prepare a USB flash drive and then connect it to your PC. Or you can connect a USB hard disk to your computer.

Note

Some of you may be wondering: Do I need to format my external drive to be a bootable disk? Actually, MiniTool Media Builder supports USB hard disk, USB flash drive, CD and DVD disc. While creating a MiniTool bootable disc or drive, your device will be formatted. Thus, please ensure that there is no important data saved on your device.

Step 1: Select Media Builder from Tools to get the main interface.

Step 2: Select WinPE-based media with MiniTool plug-in to continue.

Note

By clicking Options, you can add more drivers to the bootable media.

Step 3: Here, MiniTool ShadowMaker allows you to make an ISO file, create a bootable USB flash drive, create a bootable external hard disk, or build a bootable CD/DVD disc.

Note

Only when your removable hard disk is connected to your PC, the USB Hard Disk option can be displayed in the above figure.

① ISO File:

To make a .iso file, please select ISO File and then choose where to save the .iso file.

Please wait patiently until MiniTool Media Builder finishes building the .iso file. Then, click the Finish button.

Note

After finishing making a .iso file, you need to burn the .iso file to a USB drive or DVD/CD disc and then boot your PC from the device.

② USB Flash Disk

To create a bootable USB flash drive, please select USB Flash Disk option and select the correct USB flash drive if there are many. Then click Yes to confirm that you want to create the bootable media.

Please wait until MiniTool Media Builder finishes building the USB bootable drive. Finally, click Finish after successful burning.

③USB Hard Disk

To create a bootable external hard drive, please click USB Hard Disk option. Then, a warning appears to tell you that your device will be formatted. To continue, click Yes button.

Please wait until MiniTool Media Builder finishes building the bootable USB hard disk. Finally, click Finish after successful burning.

Note

During the process, MiniTool ShadowMaker will format your external hard disk and repartition it into two partitions, one is for the created .iso file and another is for you to save data.

④CD/DVD Writer

To build a bootable CD/DVD disc, please select CD/DVD Writer and then click Yes to confirm that you want the burning.

Please wait until MiniTool Media Builder finishes building the CD/DVD bootable disc. Finally, click Finish after successful burning.

Note

Based on different operating systems and network environment, the time for bootable media creation varies. Please be patient when MiniTool Media Builder is still processing.

How to Boot from the WinPE Based Bootable Media

Step 1: Connect the burned MiniTool bootable media to your PC, and then start your computer.

Step 2: Wait for the message telling you how to enter BIOS appears and do as it prompts. Note that different computers may show different messages or require users to press different keys to access BIOS. If you miss the message, just restart your computer and try again.

Step 3: In BIOS, you need to set the first boot order.

① If you are trying to boot from the USB flash disk, set your USB drive as the 1st boot option and save configuration changes.

② If you are trying to boot from the CD/DVD disc, set the disc as the 1st boot option and save configuration changes.

③ If you are trying to boot from the external hard drive, set the disk as the 1st boot option and save configuration changes.

Step 4: After selecting whether to change screen resolution, and whether to load MiniTool Software, you have finally come to the main interface of MiniTool ShadowMaker Bootable.

Limitations in Windows 7 Disk Management

Windows 7 became generally available on October 22, 2009. Years later, many of you are still using this version. There are both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows 7 for your choice. 32-bit and 64-bit refer to the way a computer’s processor (also called a CPU), handles information.

In 2003, 64-bit CPUs were introduced to the mainstream personal computer arena, while 32-bit was popular previously. The 64-bit version of Windows can handle large amounts of random access memory (RAM) more effectively than a 32-bit system. To know about the differences between 32-bit and 64-bit in Windows 7, please read the introduction of Windows 7.

To make full use of Windows 7 hard disks, you need to manage them according to your individual needs. In general, you can apply the Windows 7 snap-in Disk Management tool to partition Windows 7 32/64-bit system. But there are so many limitations in it.

For instance, in the basic disk, you can only extend a primary partition if there is adjacent unallocated space right behind the target partition, or extend a logical partition if there is adjacent free space right behind it (find out what caused extend volume greyed out). Otherwise, the basic disk will be converted into a dynamic disk.

In addition, some conversion functions can cause data loss, for example, conversion between MBR disk and GPT disk and converting dynamic disk to basic disk request you to delete all partitions in the target disk. All these limitations may cause inconvenience to you at any time.

Thus, do you know how to partition Windows 7 64-bit system with ease?

Editors’ Review

• Partition Wizard’s outstanding aspect is not its capabilities, which are largely mirrored in other programs, but how easy it is to use for basic operations.
• Considering this is a truly free tool, I would recommend any Windows user that looks for an easy and powerful way to manage his/her disks and partitions, installing and trying MiniTool Partition Wizard.
• MiniTool Partition Wizard Free Edition does what pricey premium tools do, and more — yet it’s free. It remains our primary disk utility.
• Take one look at MiniTool Partition Wizard: first, it makes partitioning much simpler and friendlier than the Windows tool. Second, it’s much more flexible than Windows’ rather basic tool.

Процесс переноса Windows 10 на SSD или HDD

Прежде чем начать, учитывайте: к компьютеру уже должен быть подключен второй диск — SSD или HDD, причем в процессе все данные с него будут удалены. Также рекомендую закрыть любые программы, связанные с очисткой системы и дисков, желательно отключить антивирусы и неплохо — отключить Интернет (чтобы в процессе не начали скачиваться обновления).

Запускаем MiniTool Partition Wizard Free и выполняем следующие шаги:

На первом экране выберите пункт «Migrate OS» для запуска переноса системы. Есть и другой пункт — Disk Clone, с помощью которого можно выполнить полное клонирование дисков со всеми разделами, но рекомендую использовать именно указанный

Внимание: в последних версиях программы эта функция стала недоступной в бесплатной версии, однако, если вы найдете версию 11.6, там функция работает.
Появится окно с двумя вариантами выбора: первый предполагает полный перенос всех разделов с исходного диска на целевой, включая и те разделы, которые не являются системными. Второй — для переноса только системных разделов, исключая отдельные разделы с данными, что может пригодиться, когда данные вы планируете оставить на первом физическом диске или когда размер нового SSD заметно меньше объема исходного HDD

В обоих случаях с исходного диска ничего удаляться не будет.
На следующем этапе требуется выбрать целевой диск — тот на который будет перенесена система. Напоминаю, если на нем есть данные, они будут удалены в процессе.
Следующий этап позволяет задать размеры разделов на новом диске: их можно оставить без изменений, либо выбрать пункт «Fit partitions to entire disk», что изменит размеры разделов на целевом диске таким образом, чтобы не осталось неиспользуемого места (если второй диск больше), либо система поместилась на него (если размеры разделов на первом диске больше, чем пространство на втором диске, но данными занят объем, который может разместиться на нём). Рекомендую использовать этот пункт, если не знаете, что выбрать.
На следующем экране достаточно нажать «Finish», а затем, в главном окне программы — Apply и подтвердить начало работы, чтобы начать применение изменений.
Процесс, особенно на HDD может занять продолжительное время (иногда — очень) и состоит из двух этапов: сначала — в запущенной ОС, затем — перезагрузка компьютера по нажатию кнопки «Restart Now» и продолжение процесса после перезагрузки.

Внимание: при перезагрузке вы увидите надпись «Press Any Key to cancel» (нажмите любую клавишу, чтобы отменить) на черном экране. Не нажимайте, если не хотите отменить продолжение процесса переноса ОС.
После некоторого периода ожидания компьютер перезагрузится. Причем, в зависимости от параметров БИОС, система может загрузиться как со «старого», так и с «нового» диска (можно проверить в проводнике по размеру — диск, с которого загрузилась текущая система всегда будет под буквой C, также можно посмотреть в «Управлении дисками»). Рекомендую зайти в БИОС/UEFI и выбрать нужный диск загрузки.

На этом процесс завершен, но иногда возможны некоторые проблемы после переноса.

Remote

The Remote computer is a computer which you cannot access physically. But you can access or manage it via some kind of computer network. The Remote connections are made by the use of network that connects to the computer and the device that is used to access it.

For example, MiniTool ShadowMaker enables you to access it or manage it after inputting the IP address. After that, you can manage the remote computer as long as they are on the same LAN.

How do you know the IP address of your computer?

In order to know the IP address of your computer, you can open the Command Line window, then input the ipconfig command and hit Enter to continue. Thus, you can see that the IPv4 address of your computer is listed here, which can be used to access your computer by other people. Of course, you can also know the IP address on the Network and Sharing Center.

How to access Remote computer?

Go to the Tools page, click Remote, and MiniTool ShadowMaker will relaunch. Then, input an IP address in the pop-up window and press the right Connect button to start the remote backup.

Add Boot Menu

Normally, it is required to burn an .iso file to an USB flash drive or CD/DVD disk to create a bootable media. However, MiniTool ShadowMaker puts forward an easier way to achieve this aim. By simply adding MiniTool ShadowMaker to the boot menu, you can enter the MiniTool Recovery Environment which will start Windows PE and allow full system restore without a bootable media.
