HDD GURU FORUMS

Hi,

I am trying to make a backup image of a flashdrive using HDDRawCopy1.02Portable.exe.
So I want to select the drive letter of the source but it does not allow that.
I can only select 1 file on the drive to make a copy of.
But I need it to make an image backup of the complete flash drive including boot sector.
Is this tool not capable of doing that?
Can I only use it to copy 1 file from a disk?

Regards,

Roeland.

Although I don't use this utility, it should be able to make an image backup of the source flash drive. I just downloaded & tried it here (since, unusually for me, I have to use a Windows PC today) and I could clone a complete source drive OK. One possible reason for what you describe, could be lack of permissions for your Windows user account. Have you checked this? I wouldn't be surprised if some anti-virus software also prevented access to the underlying drive. Those are a couple of suggestions for you anyway...

Thank you for the tip, looks like not having admin rights caused the problem.
Running HDDRawCopy1.02Portable.exe as administrator indeed does the job.

Thanks for the update - I'm glad the tip worked.
