WinToHDD is a cloning software that simplifies the Windows deployment process by allowing users to install, reinstall, or backup/duplicate an existing windows installation without having to use the original CD, DVD or bootable USB drive.  

Features:

  • Allows the user to create an exact clone/backup of existing system installation on a separate partition of their existing hard drive or a completely separate drive.  This frees the user from having to use a CD or DVD for future installations and system restores. 
  • Allows the user to reinstall windows from an existing image.  Re-installations is simple as loading the software, selecting the image and target location, and clicking install.  Both BIOS-based and UEFI based computers are supported.
  • Provides the ability to make a "USB Creator".  This multi-installation tool allows users to install any version of windows via the same USB drive (BIOS and UEFI are both supported). 
  • Compatible with all common, in-use versions of Windows:
    • Free edition - Windows PC (non-enterprise Vista/7/8/8.1/10)
