Ok i've looked everywhere on google and none of the free software I find works for what I want. I just built a new budget pc for my secondary setup for around $50 i have a 250gb hdd and i'm trying to clone windows from my 1tb drive to it, I've tried installing windows from a flashdrive and I just bought windows again for my main pc because i've been using an unactivated version of windows and i don't want to buy it again. BTW my 1tb drive has 12gb left and i'm going to try to get an ssd soon for my main pc and i wound like to move windows to there when I do. Any help is welcome
I did that when moving from a 1TB HDD to a 256GB SSD. IIRC I used this: https://www.easeus.com/disk-copy/index.htm
