In combo with Minitool Partition or Aomei Part. Win 10 is the common link in all sorts of crashes and issues, and very unlikely Macrium is to blame.

Zero problems, and just remember if boot issues arise use the boot CD to fix MBR etc.

My coup de gras was using an old VHD of a dying win XP IDE laptop, mounting it via win 10, imaging it as if it were a real drive with MacRefl, then re-installing that back to the original lap IDE drive from the boot CD and external drive. Along the way, using MacrRefl, I have successfully backed up and restored and moved partitions between numerous HDDs - ALL basic MBR not GPT, even the win 10.

After a recent serious win 10 update taking 2 full hours, ie longer than the original upgrade from win 7 itself, it has finally stopped the infamous pagefile error crash on every shutdown/reboot. New dynamic file names for backups are available.As I have been using MacRefl Free for several years, finding it all around the most reliable means of cloning/imaging, including over the past 2 months of messing with fixing the Win 10 'upgrade' nightmare, I must laugh at your completely wrong info. Backup file name functionality improvements.The folder that contains the backup can also be opened directly now using the context menu. Backup logs can also be viewed directly now for particular backup files (by right-clicking on the file and selecting View Backup Logs). Backed up files can be viewed in tree or flat list view in the new interface. New functionality, such as the ability to sort files or view them in context of the backup set, have been added. Restore has been renamed to Existing Backups.Here are the main new features of Macrium Reflect Free 8:
