This was a test run, just to prove it was practical. That's currently running with a restored Macrium system image of W10 from my main laptop, then upgraded to W11. My System One in My Computers below is getting too long in the tooth to run W11, so I have bought a newer laptop to replace it. Your SSD upgrade will not cause any activation issues. Upgrading your hard drive does not count as a hardware change as far as Microsoft is concerned, in fact the hard drive plays no part in the hardware ID used to identify your PC on Microsoft's activation servers. Licensing for Macrium Reflect works quite differently from Microsoft's activation for Windows 10. I wish to use MR to clone the C: drive to the new one, and I noticed in the v8 user guide a section "Removing your Licence key when Upgrading your PC".Ĭan someone confirm that the process would be to remove the licence key, then perform the cloning with MR running as Free version, then reactivate MR with same licence key.Īm familiar with reactivating Windows after hardware change, and the few other softwares that I have.
I have Macrium Reflect 8 paid latest version. I am upgrading 275GB SSD C: drive to a 500GB SSD, and also upgrading 1TB HDD D: drive to a 1TB SSD.
