    Just use Macrium to make another rescue disk/USB drive and backup/image. Once you have it made, delete the old one.

    I would highly suggest when you have all the files and settings restored to where you want them,
    make a new full Macrium back up.
    Plus, make and test a new Macrium Rescue disk, both of these will be very useful if you
    ever have a problem in the future.
    If you have any questions as to how to do any of this please ask.
    The Rescue disk is quick and easy to make.

    Great news! *Thumbs

    If it were me, I would make a baseline image, then another, once you have everything installed and setup as you like it.
