    Original Macrium Reflect shortcut: parameters?


    The first MR shortcuts I set up triggered a pop-up panel with a timer, an OK button, and a cancel button in it, and told me what MR was about to do. Unfortunately, there was a "Don't show this again" box on it, and I clicked it a while back. Now I'm thinking I'd like to get that pop-up back, but I can't figure out how to do that. I've generated new xml files and made new shortcuts from them, but the panel doesn't come back. The shortcut (right-click, Properties) shows the parameter sequence -e -w -full between the name of the exe and the name of the backup file. If you have a shortcut that brings up the pop-up, would you please check it for me and tell me what the parameters are in it? (I'm thinking there's probably another letter with a hyphen, like "-a" or "-x").

    :)

    Original Macrium Reflect shortcut: parameters?

    Doesn't seem to be. I can't find it in online help, either, though I'm still looking.

    My current shortcut -- the one that runs my configured image-making protocol with a click -- has this in the Properties>Target line: "D:\Backup\Macrium Reflect\reflect.exe" -e -w -full "D:\Backup\Disk 0 Image.xml"
    and I suspect that there was another parameter in the original shortcut that triggered the pop-up, but I can't seem to get it back, even with entirely new settings sent to a new xml file.
    Thanks for the reply, though.
    Think I'll search in the registry for a settings subkey next.

    Found it, my friend. Your suggestion sent me looking again. I was just looking at Advanced Options in the main setup panels, but I found (in the online help, at How to disable the backup notification dialog - KnowledgeBase v7.2 - Macrium Reflect Knowledgebase - KnowledgeBase v7.2 - Macrium Reflect Knowledgebase
    exactly what you were telling me: I had to go to Other Tasks first, then Edit Defaults, and (THEN) Advanced Options. I had been unaware that there were Advanced Options other than the Advanced Options at the bottom left of the setup panels.
    Thanks again, and I'm marking this one Solved.

    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.
