AOMEI Backupper

SIW2 · 18 May 2018

Easy so far, here is the tricky bit.
Backupper uses a filter driver, so you need to add registry entries ( unless you have the Tech Edition).

Open Regedit.

Highlight HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

Click File>Load Hive

Browse to Mount\Windows\System32\config and select the file called System. It will ask you to give it name - call it SYS.

Then merge this .reg file.
AOMEIBU.zip

Finally click on Sys to highlight it, then File>Unload Hive

That's it.

You can now unmount and commit the wim.

When you boot the wim you should be able to launch Aomei Part Assist and Aomei Backupper from the menu we added previously.

I'm still trying to absorb all that. I have flash drives to boot Aomei Backupper and Partition software. I've used Backupper for years now and prefer it.

If you need win10x64 boot media for any reason 16299x64-v2.iso

Just wanted to say thanks to @ian50 and @SIW2 for the thread and sharing the ISO. I was on the same situation and I can confirm this really works.

I use AOMEI backupper quite a lot for rescue, backup, migrate and restore on all of my computers, I do have my set of tools but for some strange reason I couldn't get any ISO/CD/USB-boot to work on my Surface 3 and one Macbook Pro, they just wouldn't boot any of those tools no matter what I tried. Yes I tried creating diff ones with diff options, also downloading diff tools trying diff usbs, sizes, formats, partitions, turning off secure boot, etc, just like the OP described on this thread and perhaps more. Many threads on the web fail to grasp what the problem is and so the suggestions won't work.

That is, until I found this thread and now I have one tool that works on ALL my machines. It is worth posting confirmations and details when something works and solves the problem, just as saying thanks to those sharing the information.
