    Unable to recover - System drive too small

    Unable to recover - System drive too small

    After installing Windows 10 last week, I created a system image using the built-in backup software.

    The system OS SSD is 120GB.

    Over the weekend I restored my system back to Windows 7 using a prior image so I could transfer a software license for a program I needed.

    Same SSD with Win7 and Win10 - now when trying to restore my Windows 10 image, I receive the error that my system drive is too small. This doesn't really make any sense to me - I've never had this issue with Windows 7.

    I don't mind doing a full Win10 install again if I have to, but I'd rather not as I had it all setup how I want.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks...
