You can download gdisk, a part of GPT fdisk by Rod Smith for OS X, Windows, or Linux at. So let me quickly say how I knew something was wrong. Not sure what you mean by Winclone image showing a "?". And it does NOT support EFI booting on Boot Camp. My mid 2012 MBP 15 is a MacBookPro 9,1 if I recall correctly. Jenzjen: I really don't which Macs support EFI Boot Camp. But in my case, this requires the version 4.4 beta, which is due to be released shortly.īottom line: Winclone is the ONLY solution I personally can recommend. Winclone is the only working solution I have found to restore a Boot Camp partition without a GPT MBR mismatch. I am not sure if version 4.3.1 works with Window 8 or 7, but it didn't for me with 8.1. Apparently it works with a true EFI booting of Windows, but my mid 2012 MBP 15", apparently does not support EFI booting of Windows.

The main caveat with Winclone, is that the current version 4.3.1 does NOT work in my case. Winclone 4.4 beta maintained the PMBR integrity the Microsoft restore did not.

Once I realized the Winclone 4.4 beta restore was solid, the driver re-installations seemed more trivial. This solution worked, except it disabled two third party drivers: Power Assistant and Trackpad++, by Vladimir Plenskiy, which had to be re-installed after the Winclone restore. Version 4.4 includes an option for legacy booting. Version 4.3.1 restored the Boot Camp partition, but was not bootable.

Winclone support allowed me to download a Winclone 4.4 beta that corrected issues with Windows 8.1. I had already purchased Winclone 4.3.1 about a week ago. Fortunately, my Winclone backup was current. And Winclone restored my Boot Camp partition. In fact, I had to completely wipe my hard drive and restore the 2 week old Time Backup to get going again. I had to use the gdisk utility, mentioned above, to diagnose the issue. But ultimately I lost my HFS+ partition with OS X and lost nearly 2 weeks of changes, because I had NOT run Time Machine for the same 2 weeks. Things worked for awhile with restored the System Image Backup. That is the GPT partition Boot Camp resides on and the emulated MBR partition, reported different sizes and start/end positions on the drive. I discovered the Microsoft included System Image Backup had apparently caused a GPT MBR mismatch. The latter includes a command line utility named gdisk, which can run under OS X and Windows, as well as Linux. Rod Smith has created both the rEFInd and GPT fdisk utilties. I suspect the System Image Backup might work okay outside of the Boot Camp environment, on real Windows hardware. For a while I thought it was working just fine, but it was NOT. Each time a new backup is created, this large VHDX file is overwritten. It creates a large VHDX file on an external drive.

Windows 8.1 includes "System Image Backup", which can be found under "File History" in the Control Panel.

In the process, I had to learn about the PMBR or Pseudo MBR Apple uses in Boot Camp.įirst of all, I thought I was able to utilize an entirely Microsoft solution. I have spent the past several days evaluating Winclone and the built in Microsoft solution and have arrived at some conclusions. I simply want to get back to the previous state if the Boot Camp VM fails.Īny recommendations for a good Boot Camp backup and restore utility? I spent a lot of time getting my Boot Camp partition working the way I want. But just in case something goes wrong, it would be crucial to restore my Boot Camp partition back to it's previous state. Parallels Desktop purports to support this scenario. That way I can have a Windows only environment and a Windows environment under OS X, with the same Windows installation. I want to start using my new Boot Camp partition with Parallels Desktop. I suspect that since Boot Camp uses OS X to facilitate booting into Windows, a pure Windows solution wouldn't be the best one.

But I prefer a Windows only solution if possible.

It looks so far like Winclone might be my best answer.
WINCLONE 4 TRIAL PRO
I now have an installation of Windows 8.1 Pro on Boot Camp, that is working well for me and I'd like to take a snapshot of it, and be able to restore it as a test. I've already tried Macrium Reflect, but could not get it to boot after restoring a test partition. But now I've started working with Boot Camp and would like to do something similar. One thing I really like about OS X is the ability to use Time Machine and to backup and restore a partition.
