as an alternative to w7's imaging you can use Macrium Reflect FREE Edition - Information and download to image individual drives and restore individually as well. these will help with that.

Hi,
I have been following the tutorial step by step in order to move my user folder etc to my D drive, I have looked through the entire thread for anyone with the same problem but could not find anyone mention it.
I am at the stage of entering the CMD prompt of the .xml file, however, I keep receiving the error "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process".
I have checked that notepad is definitely closed, and I cannot see it open as a process in task manager. I might be looking for the wrong thing though. I have also tried copying the file, renaming it, and trying that in CMD, but I seem to get the same error.
If anyone knows how to solve this, that would be fantastic. I am sure it is some simple noob error, but one I am yet to solve. Thanks in advance, keep up the great work!
I use Acronis but I want to swap out some HDD's between my systems and upgrade my SSD's and wanted to clean up things before I did it. I have made backups with Acronis already but I should be able to use Win backup to image the SSD and restore on a new larger SSD but currently it appears that both C: and D: are recognized as part of the system drives and I want to correct that before I upgrade.
My understanding is that I must have MBR files on my D: drive and that is why it shows up when I try and make a image with Win 7. I can and do use Acronis to make regular backups but would like my OS and ALL necessary boot and system files to be on the SSD and not spread.across both drives.
You might check to see that the drive is still labeled as D by Windows. the last time I used this method w7 had different ides than I did with drive labels so I had to relabel them in disk Management.
For the poster above... Did you try stopping the Windows Media Sharing Services ? Its mentioned at the very end of the PDF tutorial as an item to try if you are getting error messages.
