You can use Windows tools. To do it, go to Control Panel, File History, System Image Backup, and create a system image. In Windows 7, it is Control Panel, Backup and Restore, create a system image. Select a media to save the image and click Next. Watch one of our videos for a detailed guide on creating a recovery image and restoring Windows. Find the link in the description. As a result, a complete system image will be created, including all installed applications and programs, files and shortcuts, as well as settings. To use the system image you have just created on another computer, you will need a Windows boot or installation disk. In my case, a bootable USB drive will be created. But it can also be a CD or a DVD. Watch another video on our channel to see how to create a bootable USB drive for Windows 7, 10, 8 or 7. Find the link in the description. After that, connect the media containing the system image and the USB bootable drive to the new computer. Boot the computer with the USB drive. To do it, go to Buyer's or UFI and set first boot priority to the USB device. Then restart the computer. There is a special video about it. I will give the link in the description. After the computer boots from the USB drive, use it to go to Recovery Environment by selecting the menu System Restore. Here is a special video about it. Find the link in the description. In the Recovery Environment, go to Travel, Shooting, System Image Recovery. Then follow the wizard directions to recover the system from an image. And the recovery process will start. Wait until it is over. Here is one very important aspect. Transferring Windows from one computer to another is only possible if they have similar interfaces – BIOS and BIOS or UFI and UFI. You can also move the system from a computer with BIOS to a computer with UFI. As all modern computers have UFI, you are not going to have any problems. But if you try to move Windows from a computer with UFI to a computer with BIOS, it will not work. The system image will not be restored, and you will see a narrow message saying about incompatibility of different versions of microcode. To learn if you have a BIOS or UFI, watch one of our videos. You will find the link in the description. When the recovery process is successful, the computer will restart and boot the same Windows which you used to create this image. System transfer is shown on the example of Windows 10. In Windows 7, your actions will be the same just when you unfold the image on a new VPC, the recovery environment interface will be different. In this video, we show the method based on Windows tools. However, there are many third-party programs for transferring, cloning, creating a system image or backup. They are based on a similar principle. There are both free and fee-paying solutions. For example, free applications or AMA-backup or standard or macroreflect free. A good alternative are programs by HDD and SSD manufacturers. Seagate Disk Wizard, Samsung Data Migration, Acronis True Image, Western Digital Edition, but they all work only with disks of their own brands. That is all for now.
