I backed up my Bootcamp partition using Winclone and attached a new external SSD drive. I booted into Windows and formatted the drive as a NTFS drive, then went back to MacOS and ran Winclone and tried to do a restore of the image. I got the following error: “Restore Error: Could not find disk uuid and partition uuid”. I tried formatting the disk using Disk Utility and setting up a MS-DOS (FAT32) partition and that didn’t work either. The drive only has one partition. Any way I try this I get the same uuid error mentioned above. Ideas?
That is strange. Please post the output of this command in terminal:
diskutil list

Was the image on the external drive? Which partition were you restoring it to?
