Windows 10: Add Macrium reflect to W10 boot menu - all disks GPT

Any way to make this work? I have 3 drives in my PC, 1 SSD and 2 HDD, all are setup as GPT. I carved out a 2GB FAT32 Q: partition from the end of my large D: partition to put the Macrium Rescue ISO file in. I was going to mark it as active then add it to my boot menu. Unfortunately, when I try to make the partition active I get:

Can I set this up so I can boot it? Maybe format it NTFS, not make it active and boot it from UEFI? I know I've seen @NavyLCDR and some others talking about this but I was not interested at the time so didn't pay much attention. Now I need the info so if you're out there drop in and let me know if this is doable please.

Removing Macrium From Boot Menu

I tried Macrium Reflect and had it create a boot menu.

Now I don't have it on my system but the boot menu with Macrium Reflect remains.

I went into System's Startup and Recover settings but found no way to delete the item.

Any ideas?

Macrium Boot Question

Macrium Boot Question

I use Windows 10 and a Macrium recovery program. My BIOS is set where the optical disk for CDs and DVDs are not set to recognize a CD/DVD disc as the first priority to boot from.

What are the steps I should take to make my Macrium Rescue Disk as being first to boot from?

Thanks,

Jerry

 

Restoring Windows 10 Image using Macrium Reflect


In addition to the above. Here's my suggestion in step by step.
I assume you have Macrium Installed in your current HD and already made a backup copy.

1. Connect your new HD via USB port and boot up.
2. Run Macrium, click on Restore tab then select the Backup Image that you made to restore
3. click on "select a different target disk" then select your new HD as destination
   
   
   
4. Proceed to restore then Shutdown and disconnect the old HD and replace with the new HD
5. Boot up with your new HD.
