Windows 10: strange download agent - macrium reflect

when I started the download agent (which I downloaded today from the "free" button from macrium reflect site

I could choose in the upper dropdown menu only for "free" not for "home".

and there was no possibility to select "full version" and to fill in the license key.

Isn't it possible anymore to download the full version via the free download agent or has created macrium now seperated download agents?

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.

 

Alternative to Macrium Reflect Free?


On my desktop machine Macrium can't create bootable rescue media. I have booted from an Ubuntu image in the same USB2 slot, so it ought to work. I've tried both the UEFI and non-UEFI options. Meanwhile on my laptop when I try to run the downloader I get "The Macrium Reflect download agent is retrieving the download options list. Please try again later", and that's where it gives up.
