Simplest backup wanted.

I have not been able to create a screenshot of what I am seeing when I open the "System Backup" option but it shows Disc 0 with three boxes, all ticked.

Below that it shows Disk 2 with the same boxes as above but none are ticked. At the bottom it shows destination K:\ . I assume this is the SSD I have connected to the PC for the backup, although it doesn't appear in the "Start/Computer list of drives connected. When I click "Proceed" a message in red appears that says: The system cannot find the path specified (0x003E0085000008CA)

Does this mean the brand new SSD I have plugged in is a dud, or is it something else?

Have you intialized, partitioned and formatted your new ssd ?

No, I haven't. Since it doesn't show up in the "Computer" list of drives I wouldn't know how to do that.

type diskmgmt.msc in the start search box

when it pops up click it

Very interesting. I did that and it shows the backup drive as Disc 2 with the same info as indicated for Disc 0 (my "C" drive). It appears that my effort to use the Hasleo software has at least done a backup or clone or image to the drive. I will try to work out how to delete this or use it in the event of original "C" disc failure.
Thanks for the tip.
