Macrium Reflect CRC error code 23
I've run into an issue on my son's system running Win10 22H2. When I attempt to create an image of the boot drive using Macrium Reflect it errors out with a CRC Code 23. This has been going on since last summer. I was just working/cleaning my son's system and had forgot about that issue until I returned it to him and went to make an image.
I have Googled that issue and even found some references to it here on the Forums. I have narrowed the issue down to one of the boot drive partitions but not the actual OS partition as I can Image that one by itself with no issue.
Win10 is installed via UEFI with the standard 4 partitions using a 1 TB NVMe drive.
100 MB EFI partition
16 MB Hidden partition
Boot partition
~500 MB Recovery partition
So this is not really a Macrium Reflect issue but an issue with one of the partitions. I have ruled out the OS partition. I know I can safely delete the Recovery partition. But not sure how/if I can repair the EFI partition if that one is the issue without reinstalling Windows. So wondering how to attempt repair on the EFI partition or the Hidden 16 MB partition?
Although I should probably go ahead and rebuild his system with Win11 and move away from Win10. But he's a gamer and has a lot of games installed. He does use an SSD game drive. Plus he has a 4 TB HDD for data storage.
