    Failure to clone an ssd to bigger ssd with minitool partition wizard


    I got a fikwot 2tb drive because I want to upgrade the from a 1tb drive that my laptop msi gs66 stealth has. I tried cloning the 1tb information to the 2tb drive using several programs like AOMEI backupper, AOMEI partition assistant, and minitool partition wizard. The one that was the closest to getting the job done was minitool partition wizard. However, I am encountering problems with cloning the drive.

    After cloning the drive using minitool partition wizard, I am able to see that the 2tb has all the partitions cloned from the 1tb. Nevertheless, when I boot into the fikwot 2tb the only partition available is partition C: Windows. I am attaching here 2 pictures. One is of the minitool partition wizard showing the fully cloned 2tb drive, and the other one is Disk Management. I am very new to all of these so any help would be very much appreciate it.

    Your pictures didn't attach. Do the screenshots, look in Pictures, Screenshots. Then at the bottom of this box click Go Advanced to get the place to attach the files.

    Hi Berton, I am having issues uploading my screenshots. When I click on insert image after clicking on Go Advanced, it shows a pop up asking me to browse my computer for the images. Once I click on them and click on upload, no image is uploaded. Do you know how to fix this?

    Are you clicking on Browse then on the image on your drive then Upload?

    All your pictures uploaded correctly and are visible in the Thread for me.

    All your pictures show you are booted into the 1TB disk. And it shows all of your partitions, except the last two Recovery Partitions (which you don't need) were cloned property to the 2TB..
    When you boot into the 2TB, the Windows drive letter will change from I: to C: And the old C: drive will change from C: to probably I:.
    Please boot into the new 2TB SSD and upload pics of Disk Management and Minitool.
    If you can boot successfully into the the new 2tb disk. Then Unplug the old drive and start the computer. If it boots correctly,. you have done a successful clone.

    I have noticed that in disk management, the 2tb ssd doesn't say "healthy recovery partition" in the last 2 partitions. I am not sure if this has anything to do with the partitions other than C: Windows not showing up when I boot from the 2tb ssd? any help would be appreciated.
