Windows 10: Macrium Reflect Free Error - The Usb Disk Contains The Maximum Number

Hello,

I've been trying to create system image for a couple of days.

On Macrium Reflect Free I got an error "The USB Disk Contains The Maximum Number Of Partitions Allowed. Please Try A Different USB Disk Or Remove Partitions.

On YouTube people suggest some solutions for it but that won't work for me either. They use the software "EaseUS Partition Master"

They convert the disk from "Primary" into "Logical" then create partition in it.

But at operations at the left there is no "Create Partition" option in EaseUS Master software I installed.

Can you help me?

EaseUS Partition Master Version 12.0

Total Back-up

The type of backup you are talking about is generally known as an 'Image copy" backup. The idea is you take a "snapshot", or image, of your current computer setup. That way, if there is a problem you can use the backup program to restore your computer
from this backup to a "known good point". You save this backup to an external drive, is USB drive or (in the past, no so much anymore) burn it to DVD-R disks.

There are a number of paid and free backup tools. Macrium is one of the free one (I have used it in the past).

I don't have to deal with that error now. I could fix that in a way.

I didn't come up with an error when doing it in this way.
