Hi, just got Winclone9 yesterday. I am trying to clone my existing Bootcamp partition to my NVME SSD, which is still unsuccessful after x number of tries.
Winclone Backup is included with every edition of Winclone 5. Features: Clone Windows 7 (64-bit only), 8.1, or 10 with ease. Clone to your Boot Camp partition either on a separate drive or on the same that contains your OS X partition. Creates image documents that can be stored on any media and double-clicked to open in Winclone. Winclone 6 2 – Clone Your Boot Camp Partition Restore Mode. Clone Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 with ease. Clone to your Boot Camp partition either on a separate drive or on the same that contains your Mac OS X partition. Creates image documents that can be stored on any media and double-clicked to open in WinClone. What I meant by 'Backing up the data inside your Bootcamp install is a different issue from being able to restore the whole volume onto a Mac' is that Winclone can backup and restore the whole Bootcamp partition, obviously including all your files, data, apps and settings inside Bootcamp. My belief, based on the when I was last doing this stuff.
My stuff:
Big Sur on 16' MBP
Used W10 1909 ISO for bootcamp installation
SSD is XPG SX8200 Pro 1TB in Orico enclosure
Winclone 6 2 – Clone Your Boot Camp Partition Disk Software
Steps I did:
- Vol to Vol – didn't work because of block mismatch. Proceeded to suggestion…
- Create Image from Vol – success, saved to Desktop
- Restore Image from saved clone file – failed.
Here are the logs:

I read through a couple of articles and topics here and I still could not get it to work. Am I missing something?
