I'll start by saying that I am not an advanced user. This Marker file has the following file name format: 'Macrium_restore_.txt', where the GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) is retrieved from the ' ' in the restore xml.I am having trouble when trying to restore from one Windows 10 laptop to another. However, It's possible that Windows PE has assigned different drive letters to local drives, in this case the following procedure is followed.Īll local drives are scanned for a 'Marker' file that is created when the restore definition is saved. The default behaviour is to read the image file specified in the xml node. To ensure that there are no nasty surprises after restoring, Macrium Reflect will uses unique disk identifiers and sector offsets to match the source and target of the restore. It is imperative that the correct image file is restored to the intended disk. The restore definition contains instructions to locate the image file to restore from and the target disk to restore to. This can be any local drive, including USB flash drives or optical media. Macrium Reflect will use the first restore definition found. Local drives are scanned (from A to Z) for a restore definition 'macrium_restore.xml' file in each drive root folder.
Use with caution as Windows PE can enumerate disks in a different sequence and cause the wrong disk to be restored to, however, this won't be an issue if your system has only one local disk.
The default number is the current number of the target disk but you can choose an alternative disk number if it's known that the number of the disk is different in the restore environment. Match target disk on disk number if unique id is not found: This option will not fail the restore if the target unique disk id cannot be found. The unique disk id is used to ensure that the correct disk is restored to. Match target disk on unique identifier: This is the default operation. The latest backup date is chosen as the restore source. Restore the latest matching image in the same folder: The image folder will be searched for any image files that contain the partitions being restored. The image file selected will be used as the restore source. Restore this image file: This is the default operation. Enter a password to protect against accidental or unauthorised running of this restore.
