However, here's the question.did I make the right decision by cloning my C drive, as opposed to Imaging it to the J drive? I've read several articles explaining the difference between imaging and cloning. The backup drive, we'll call it "J", is now a 1:1 copy of my C drive. OK so I'm running Windows 10, and I purchased the full retail version of Macrium Reflect, and have now cloned my main C: drive to another SSD drive, using the "Clone this Drive" option. Fortunately for all of us Macrium includes a handy little way to mount your drive image as a virtual drive in Windows so you can browse /Downloads/ or any other folder in the disk image to your heart’s content.Hey how's it going guys good to be here :) If that file isn’t co-located in your regular file backup system and exists only in your drive image then you need a way to get at that file without writing the entire image to a new drive. Let’s say, for example, you followed one of our tutorials that uses Macrium Reflect, like How to Create an Image of Your PC Before Upgrading to Windows 10, and then some time later you realize there was a file in your /Downloads/ folder that you really needed.

Ideally you have parallel backup practices: one backup workflow for things like /My Documents/ and your photos and a tandem backup process for your entire system drive so you can restore your computer in the event of a failure or serious problem.
