Can I clone an NTFS Windows partition locally to another drive but only changing the UUID?

posted 2 months ago

I had cloned my original hard disk installation to SSD using Macrium Reflect. But it caused confusion because they had the same UUID.

My plan is to regularly image the Windows partition to the spare hard disk as a backup in case of SSD failure.

I forgot if it was Disk Magic or CloneZilla that I used to copy over my the Windows install I had and it worked great
