Using an HP laptop windows 10 vs 1701.
It has 5 partitions including a recovery and HP Diagnostics partition.
If I back up the whole disk to an external drive, does the Bios have to be in UEFI mode during the creation of the backup image? Mine was set to Legacy during the backup process.
When I restored, I got the warning about GPT mode because I had previously wiped the drive to test something and had clean reinstalled windows with legacy enabled.
So I disabled Legacy and set the drive to GPT. Then I made the Aomie live USB bootable tool in UEFI mode.
When I restored the drive, I only had 4 partitions brought over. The UEFI Diagnostic Tool partition was missing.
Aomie reported at the end of the process that a GPT backup was restored back as GPT. But no Diagnostics partition.
So im trying to understand why its missing.
When the backup is created, does the bios have to be set to UEFI mode for that also, or did I do something else wrong?
