    Hello guys,

    I may need some informations or support from you.
    How can I restor a image of a HDD of 120 GB with Windows 10 installed, on multiple HDD's different sizes .
    I have managed to restore the images, but the I have unalocated space for the difference of dimensions.
    Example if one of the HDD's has 1 TB, I will have 750GB unalocated.
    If I chose k1 - create partition table proportionaly, the windows will not work anymore on the target HDD.

    Can someone help, please.

    Thnak you so much for your support.

    "If I chose k1 - create partition table proportionaly, the windows will not work anymore on the target HDD." -> Did you mean it failed to boot? Or? Which version of Clonezilla live did you use?
    BTW, you can also use GParted live (https://gparted.org) to resize the destination machine after you restore the image without using "-k1" option.

    Thank you for your reply.
    I have tryed using stable - 2.6.3-7 and testing - 2.6.4-7.
    Yes after mounting the image, it cound not boot up windows, I receive a blue scrren error of windows, and it could not be repaired.
    I am trying to find a mthod to do the resize automatically, as I have to mounth around 100 windows every day.

    Thank you,

    "a blue scrren error of windows" -> Did you install sysprep in the source machine before you take an image? Maybe that helps.
