    Reinstalling windows on a new HD


    My hard disk failed a few days back so I'm in the process of getting a new one.

    Is there a way I can use my old Windows 10 licence? Or do I have to buy a new copy? To make thing more complicated I'm not at all sure where the licence code is.

    Thank you for any advice

    :)

    Thanks so much. Got EaseUs like you suggested. Took care of everything. Next step, reinstalling Windows 10 on a new HD. Thanks again.

    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.
