Thanks a lot ignatzatsonic for all the help you have given

Success! Computer is now running on the 500 GB Samsung EVO SSD. I took my time because I was busy and did not want to make a mistake by rushing.
First cleaned up by moving things from C Drive. Got...
Thanks once again
Busy cleaning up C. Down to 413 GB and shortly another 46 GB will be removed = 367 GB. I think C will be around 359/360 GB (maybe a little less?) in size on SSD.
Okay, thanks so much. I will get the old computer down from the shelve and do some practice with MR. I am just going to have to leave _ and hope _ the MR settings as they already are when installed. ...

Thanks ignatzatsonic,
E has 527 GB free

I will be honest and say I have never quite...
I seek clarification for three groups of questions I have about cloning my C: Drive to SSD
1) On my C: HDD (Windows 10) there was still a 60 GB Recovery Partition with the original W8. I have...
Sorry I am very late closing this down due to health issues. I returned new computer and still using old one. I was still too unsure about software licence issues. I might later just try to upgrade...
Thanks ever so much NavyLCDR, great reply!
Thanks for taking the time and effort to explain this.
A great “how to” description.
(sorry but being a novice I will check below that I have...
MOST! There are probably one or two I installed on the second drive (old computer). These I would have to see if I can download/reinstall again later.
so would it be possible to use the backup I...
Sorry my tipping mistake = correction = HDD is 2000 GB
Okay but if they are all purchased and most/all registered that should not be a problem (I hope)?
But what I was asking in my reply to your first answer was: How, when I follow your first reply...

DONE!
perhaps a bit late to think of this, but wouldn't it have been better to have just the system in it's own partition, and the rest in another?
Okay, thanks for BOTH replies =
So I should now just go ahead and do a Clean Install = and in the window shown in zbook's last post = delete everything that is showing = correct?
(This will...
