I noticed a dark yellow "Activation" button on the bottom left of the initial window. I clicked on the "Activation" button and it asked for Registration Key. I entered the info from the "Readme" and it was activated. There was no pop-up window.

Can AweClone 3.0 for Windows clone the operating system on my Windows computer's SSD along with everything else on the SSD, and transfer the contents to an external HDD or SSD? When the clone is installed on another computer, will it boot?

AweClone is basically a subset or portion of a disk/partition image backup app -- the main difference, along with features like incremental backups, is that image backup software clones the HDD to a VHD [Virtual Hard Disk], though most can clone a disk or partition(s) to a physical drive as well. As a single file without any wasted free space, a VHD is simply a better choice for storing the cloned data from an HDD. That said, there's nothing preventing you from cloning to a VHD you create and attach [mount] in Windows.
Many of AweClone's files have names starting with EU, which I associate with EaseUS, and in fact there are a couple that include EaseUS in the name. That's good, because EaseUS is generally a very good company that's been in the business of backup software for quite a long time. The bad part is that like AOMEI, the bootable USB stick you create with their apps generally will not work with Secure Boot enabled, and it is in most every current Windows device. I tried creating a bootable USB stick in AweClone, and the process of creating the USB stick failed. I was able to create an ISO however, which could be put on a bootable USB stick using the free Rufus app, but again, it probably wouldn't work unless you turned off Secure Boot.
AweClone had an orange button for activation on the lower left 1/4 of its window that disappears once activated. It flashed a message immediately that there was an update available -- I activated the original version [from GOTD] then updated and it remained activated or registered. Updating involves downloading the setup file, which uninstalls the app when run, before installing the newer version.
AweClone itself is not portable -- it will run without being installed, but it throws an error because it can't find any attached drives, and it's service isn't installed & running. If you need to run it from a USB stick create that in AweClone, or create the ISO & use Rufus. Installing the app adds the program's folder, plus an empty "SystemAcCrux" folder in ProgramData\. Besides the service, the registry gets a couple of keys plus one more for uninstall.

Installed and the program immediately said and update was available (v3.1). I did not activate 3.0, just uninstalled it. I then installed 3.1, which activated with the code from the goatd readme.

Is this in any way better than the numerous free disk cloning utilities out there?
Save | Cancel
Need help with activation, nothing pops up. In about it doesn't say anything about license or registration.

Reid, After installed... don't update when program is started. See Registration on the left from the program. It works for me. Maybe you install that program before? Maybe that is reason.

There is no button to be found for the activation key to be filled in, neither comes a pop up menu. Pls. let us know how we can activate. TXS

Can this be installed on a USB as portable so if the drive it is on fails, you can move the cloned backup to a new system
Save | Cancel
rww, no, but you can create a USB stick with the app from within the program itself.

If I have enough room on the drive can I clone two C:drives to one external drive for our desktop and laptop
Save | Cancel
rww, You're better off using a disk/partition image backup app, which will clone the drives to individual VHDs on that external drive. If you wanted to clone the drives instead, you'd need to create 2 partitions on the external drive, one for each cloned drive.
Save | Cancel
rww,
That is not what cloning software does. Sounds like you are talking about backup software, specifically drive imaging software.
Save | Cancel
Could it "copy" larger to smaller partition? Or HDD of 1 Tb with 250 GB occupied to HDD of 500 GB?
Save | Cancel
Per the user guide -- magoshare.com/user-guide/disk-clone-user-guide.html -- there is an option to "Autofit the disk", so yes.
Save | Cancel
So would this program be good to use as a backup?
Save | Cancel
Mike, there's really no upside to using a cloning app instead of a disk/partition image backup app.
Save | Cancel
TK,
Very appreciative of your answer-
Would you be so kind as to recommend a good back up
for my whole system- that would be bootable?
What do you use?
Super thank you in advance- Mike

I had a previous version installed, so I told the new installation to uninstall the previous one. Once I ran the program, I did not get a pop-up window asking for activation, and I do not see an activation listing in the program menus.

RT, Yeah same here, no where to use code to activate.

portable? bypassing o.s. ? ssd to ssd ? . via usb ?
Save | Cancel
EDDIE,
Not portable.
Bypassing OS, but in previous version could not copy os drive, meaning the copied drive did not boot.
(Data is copied, but still it wont boot)
Ssd to ssd, sure, all drives (but remember previous note, eg cannot copy your windows installation drive)
Via usb, yes, thats what I used in previous version.

Downloaded and installed version 2.9.0 from this site in january 2024. Program installed without problems and worked perfectly. Nice and easy to use GUI. However, after uninstalling the program, my PC won't boot anymore. BSOD with error message that no OS could be found. Apparently AweClone changes the boot sequence and removing the program also deletes the new sequence. Tried a lot of usual repair methods, but nothing worked. Finally I could restore my PC from a previous Easeus ToDo Backup. Never found out what happened exaclly.
